_My list of tmux commands with minimal flavor text._

The tmux terminal utility allows for splitting terminal into multiple window panes. The splits can be vertical or horizontal. Installation instructions are [here](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Installing).

## Creating a new tmux session

“`bash
tmux new -s SessionName
“`

## Creating new panes

Horizontal panes

`Ctrl+B “`

Vertical panes

`Ctrl+B %`

## Scrolling

`Ctrl+B [`

Then use arrow keys or pageup and pagedown. Press `q` to quit.

## Moving between panes

`Ctrl+B` plus arrow keys

## Closing the current pane

`Ctrl+b+x`

## Killing the current session

Sometimes you want to end the current session.

`Ctrl+b`

`:kill-session`

## Not yet finished

More to come!
