Share your tmux tricks

This is my ~/bin/bootstrap-tmux script.

Maybe it can inspire you to share some of your tmux config snippets or
tricks? I'd also be interested if you have suggestions for improvements
to my script.

# Bootstraps tmux to 80%; saves a bit of typing and thinking right after
# reboots when I just want to get back to work.

cd $HOME
WORKDIR="projects/* business/. work wrk 3rdparty/*"

# Build tmux sessions and windows based on the my project directories. These
# almost always reflect what I am working on anyway.
