Re: Blanking the tmux window.
Committed with some tweaks, thanks. Are you sure read -n is sh and not bash? I've just said bash for now.

You could write an FAQ entry if you like :-).

Blanking the tmux window.
Hi,
Someone in #tmux was asking about how to blank the tmux window after a
timeout -- a feature apparently which GNU Screen has. Here's how I do it,
in case anyone else is interested:
set -g lock-server off
set -g lock-after-time 1800
set -g lock-command 'tput civis && read -s -n1'
Thankfully, any lock-command is ran directly through system() so I can
literally put shell commands here, and have /bin/sh run them.
This works quite nicely, but what if you wanted to have this feature *and*
still be able to lock the client manually?
bind x set lock-command '/usr/bin/vlock' \; lock-client \; set lock-command
'tput civis && read -s -n1'
(That should all be on one line.)
Hope it's useful. :)
