Ask or discuss any quick questions about 3.5a here please.

Do not use this issue for bug reports, they will be ignored - please open a new issue with full information, see CONTRIBUTING.

The 3.5a CHANGES file is here.

This is a bug fix release for 3.5, please also see this issue for the 3.5 release: #4136. The new changes in 3.5a are:

  • Restore the grey colour name.

  • Revert to using /bin/sh for #(), run-shell and if-shell - only popups change to use default-shell.

  • Correct the sequences emitted for Shift keys and C-BSpace with extended keys enabled.

Please also note that 3.5 changes the way tmux represents keys, so some keys that were previously the same are now different. For example:

  • C-A and C-a, C-B and C-b and so on;
  • C-i and Tab;
  • C-m and Enter;
  • C-@ and C-Space;
  • C-Enter and Enter;
  • C-BTab and C-S-Tab.

Any bindings for these keys will need to be changed in .tmux.conf for 3.5a.

Note that a fix in 3.5 and 3.5a to correctly set SHELL for run-shell and if-shell reveals a bug in the tmux-sensible script, causing it to set default-shell to /bin/sh. This can be worked around by adding this to .tmux.conf after the tmux-sensible script is invoked:

set -gu default-command
set -g default-shell "$SHELL"
