I've gotten the proposed solution of tmux-in-tmux to work fairly well.
For others amusement, I'm attaching the scripts I'm using. In addition,
I have a seperate conf that unbinds the window switching in the top
tmux, and switches its shell to "tmux-under"; similarly, my standard
conf unbinds pane modification in the lower. In the upper I leave ^B as
the command key, and for the lower I use ^A, though many other choices
would, of course, work.
There are a number of cleanups and improvements that could be done.
I use the default socket names for the "under", so that they share a
namespace with unmodified tmux. It isn't clear that this is quite the
right thing, but it's been handy so far. It never garbage collects any
detached session, either.
Any comments?
