tmuxalacritty

Is it possible to make alacritty starts with tmux?


I am using alacritty and tmux together. Is it possible to make tmux run everytime when I launch alacritty?


Solution

  • Yes. In the shell option, you can set the program you want to run and even pass in the arguments. For example, in your alacritty.yml file, you can set this:

    shell:
      program: /usr/local/bin/tmux # <- set this to the path of your tmux installation
      args:
        - new-session
        - -A
        - -D
        - -s
        - main
    

    Every time you start alacritty, tmux will start a new session and pass the other args.
