Note that this will only work in tmux 1.2 and above.
+* How can I blank the tmux window?
+
+GNU Screen has a feature whereby it will blank the screen after a period of
+inactivity. Tmux can do the same thing by using the lock-command setting:
+
+set -g lock-command 'tput civis && read -s -n1'
+
+Which will remove the cursor, and tell the shell to quit once a key has been
+pressed.
+
+In addition, it's possible to have both blanking by default, and locking in
+the usual way (via lock(1) or vlock(1) for instance) by using the following:
+
+bind x set lock-command '/usr/bin/vlock' \; lock-client \; set lock-command 'tput civis && read -s -n1'
+
+Note that the read builtin above is Bourne-specific. Zsh users will have to use:
+
+read -s -k 1
+
