 +===== Advanced tmux example ===== 
 + 
 +In this example, we create a bash script that sets tmux up for us and automatically launches a few goodies: 
 +  me@localhost: $ nano sbbsmux 
 + 
 +  #!/bin/bash 
 +  # sbbsMux - SBBS Monitoring script 
 +  tmux new-session -d -s sess >/dev/null 
 +  tmux rename-window -t sess:0 'AlleyCat' 
 +  tmux splitw -v -p 20 -t sess:0.0 
 +  tmux splitw -h -p 80 -t sess:0.1 
 +  #required; otherwise pane numbering is bs 
 +  tmux select-pane -t sess:0.0 
 +  tmux splitw -h -p 5 -t sess:0.0 
 +  tmux send-keys -t sess:0.0 'lnav' Enter 
 +  tmux send-keys -t sess:0.2  'sudo htop -u pi' Enter 
 +  tmux send-keys -t sess:0.1 '/sbbs/exec/umonitor' Enter 
 +  tmux select-pane -t sess:0.0 
 +  tmux new-window -t sess 
 +  tmux rename-window -t sess:1 'BBS' 
 +  tmux splitw -v -p 10 -t sess:1.0 
 +  tmux splitw -h -p 80 -t sess:1.1 
 +  tmux select-pane -t sess:1.0 
 +  tmux splitw -h -p 10 -t sess:1.0 
 +  tmux clock -t sess:1.1 
 +  tmux new-window -t sess 
 +  tmux rename-window -t sess:2 'Monitor' 
 +  tmux splitw -v -p 10 -t sess:2.0 
 +  tmux send-key -t sess:2.0 'lnav /sbbs/data/sbbsecho.log' Enter 
 +  tmux select-pane -t sess:2.0 
 +  tmux splitw -h -p 5 -t sess:2.0 
 +  tmux clock -t sess:2.1 
 +  tmux select-window -t sess:0.0 
 +  tmux a -t sess 
 + 
 +** note Edit 'tmux rename-window -t sess:x 'Accordingly' ** 
 + 
 +Save this as sbbsmux (or whatever) and chmod +x and launch it 
 + 
 +  someone@somewhere: $ ./sbbsmux 
 + 
 +The output should look similar to: 
 + 
 +{{:monitor:sbbs-tmux-sbbsecho1.png?400|}} 
 + 
 +Navigate to the pane with the prompt, this was left available to preforming tasks.  Here we will launch another monitoring tool: 
 + 
 +  me@mynixbox: $ lnav /sbbs/data/sbbsecho.log 
 +   
 +Now we should see something similar to: 
 + 
 +{{:monitor:sbbs-tmux-sbbsecho.png?400|}} 
 + 
 + 
 + 
  
-{{:monitor:tmux1.jpg?400|}}
