new-window but from which pane ?

[M Kelly]

Hi,

I have this binding -

bind-key  -T prefix  c  new-window -c "#{pane_current_path}"

Is there a way to know what pane this was typed from ?

And then can I execute a cmd "in that pane" before starting a new window ?
I want to get the env and history from the pane/shell the prefix-c was typed from and set something as part of the new window/shell.

thx for awesome tmux,

-mark

If you run a command without -t it will work out the best pane which if it is run from a key binding will be the active pane in the current window in the attached session, so you should be able to do for example:

bind c send abcdef \; new-window -c "#{pane_current_path}"

Hi,

Well, I couldn't do a run-shell because that always seemed to spawn from tmux server.

But I could run-shell a cmd and pass in #{pane_pid} as an arg and get the env from that and do what I needed.

So cool.

thx,
