getting tmux setup

clone tpm

git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm

this one-liner creates the directories, the tmux.conf and echos the contents into the file. Once youve run that, open tmux and press Ctrl + B + I to install tpm into tmux. you should now see the catpuccin theme be applied (no more ugly green status bar) and you can use Ctrl + B + vim motions to move between panes.

quick tmux refresher

• Ctrl + B + % horizontal split
• Ctrl + B + " vertical split
