newtmux — Tmux Session & Logging Optimizer

Optimizes Tmux for session creation, project trees, and logging via config modifications and various features.

Starts Tmux with specified number [-w] of horizontally-split windows (default 1, maximum 5)
Automatically enables logging for each pane via the "tmux-logging" plugin, then selects the first pane
Filters ANSI color codes from log output text streams via ansi2text/sed for easy copy/paste into reports
Lowers the message duration for all "tmux-logging" plugin messages by 90% (5000 ms --> 500 ms)
Creates an optimized Tmux config file (keybinds, history limit, etc.) after backing up the existing one
Integrates with engagement-init with [-e] or if the current folder is located in a project directory tree
Otherwise, a "tmux-logging-output" folder is created in your home directory to store all logs and screen captures
Detects whether or not the "tmux-logging" plugin is installed, prompts to install it automatically if not
Identifies if a compatible version of Tmux is installed, prompts to update Tmux automatically if not

$ newtmux -h
