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,

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.
