tmux-hints

tmux-hints is an application to find matches, ie. urls and navigate them with the keyboard.

It's a rewrite of a previous tool written by me in go tmux-url-nav.

Inspired by another tool in perl tmux-url-select.

Is it any good?

Yes

Requirements

Depends on rust, tmux and stty.

Installation

Run cargo build and copy/link target/release/tmux-hints to somewhere in your path.

Add this to your .tmux.conf:

bind some-key-here run tmux-hints

Where some-key-here is any key you want to use to start url selection.

Usage

Once you're inside tmux-hints, keybindings:

  • j: down
  • k: up
  • 0-9: select by number
  • p: paste (insert text into the tmux window)
  • o: open link
  • O: open link without closing
  • q: quit

FAQ

Q: Why rust?
