Switch between sessions in tmux?

Question

I\'m relatively new to tmux and use it just for local development. In some tmux tutorials, a person will list out their tmux sessions in an enumerated list. There is yellow

Answer 1

A faster switch by name is for example possible with a shell alias. For the zsh it can look as follows:

function tn() (
    if [ -n "$1" ]
      then
         tmux switch -t $1
      else
         echo "no session name"
     fi
  )

With tn go you switch to the tmux session with name go.

Answer 2

Use tmux switch -t [target-session] if want to switch instant

Answer 3

Is PREFIX s but the real command is choose-tree. Then you can use it to bind to other key for example to 'S'
