Hi,

At times ag (searching tool like grep) ends up searching binary files like
pdf and the tmux output becomes something like this:

It is understood that the stdout shows those scrambled characters as 'ag'
is trying to read a binary file. But the problem is that I have to kill
that pane because then all characters in that pane appear jumbled: my shell
prompt, the characters that I type in shell, etc..

In the above linked screenshot, I have typed a-z and they showed up like
that jumbled mess (except for few alphabets).

The same issue does not happen if I am running ag directly in an xterm
window (outside tmux).

The only terminal related options I have set in .tmux.conf are:
setw  -g xterm-keys        on
set   -g default-terminal  "xterm-256color" # "xterm"

Here is my full .tmux.conf:
