# Shaun's `tmux` Dotfiles

## Location

The configuration files need to be present at this location, `~/.config/tmux`. So, we can use the following command to softlink/symlink,

```bash
ln -s <location of cloned dotfiles tmux directory> ~/.config
# e.g.
# ln -s ~/dotfiles/tmux ~/.config
```

## Install Plugin Manager (`tpm`)

We will use `tpm` as our plugin manager, but it cannot install itself. So we have to clone it into the proper place.
`git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm`

## Install Plugins

Once the tmux symlink is created, we can install all plugins. This is done using tpm from within a tmux session.

```bash
tmux
<leader> I
# e.g.
# Ctrl+b Shift+i 
```
