All,

I've been using tmux all of 10 minutes, and so far I'm liking it quite
a bit. However, a couple of things:

1. I've noticed that C-b f does not actually go to the pane where the
text is located. This makes it quite a bit harder to search for text -
especially if you have a complicated pane setup. Is it possible to
have C-b f chose the correct pane, go into copy mode, and place the
cursor where the text is located? To me, this would be a lot more
intuitive then what currently happens. You still need to tab through
panes, go into copy mode, etc.. it's quite laborious.

2. Would it be possible to integrate buffer management (deleting
buffers, etc) into the 'choose buffer' menu? As it stands, deleting a
buffer one at a time is quite painful.

3. I'd like to bind the # key to choose-buffer rather than
list-buffers, but am not sure of the escape sequence. '\' doesn't seem
to work - as in 'bind-key \# choose-buffer' which causes a syntax
error. How do you escape special keys?

4. save-buffer seems to save just the one buffer (the current one) to
a file - it would be great if instead it saved ALL the buffers to that
file. It'd be even better if there was a simple way of making all the
buffers unique, rather than having duplicates in the list - I could
see how this list could quickly become unwieldly..

5. does tmux have regex support (when searching through back buffers)?
this would be exceptionally helpful at searching through buffers.

Aside from the above, so far tmux is working out pretty well. But I
think #1 would be a killer function here - going to the relevant
window is good, but going to the exact pane, and exact place where the
text is located would be much better.

Anyways, if any of the above features are already implemented let me know.

Thanks, and thanks much for tmux..

Ed
