+# Add Bindings To Split Panes To Current Directory
+
+When I am vertically or horizontally splitting a pane or opening another window,
+I generally want it to open to the same directory as I'm currently in. The
+default behavior in tmux is for those commands to open to the starting directory
+of the session.
+
+Looking through the [tmux.conf in
+dkarter/dotfiles](https://github.com/dkarter/dotfiles/blob/master/config/tmux/tmux.conf#L109-L111),
+I found a good way to achieve the behavior I want.
+
+```
+bind-key - split-window -v  -c '#{pane_current_path}'
+bind-key \\ split-window -h  -c '#{pane_current_path}'
+bind-key c new-window -c '#{pane_current_path}'
+```
+
+What I like about this is that `-` (vertical) and `\` (horizontal) look visually
+like the splits they represent. Meanwhile, I leave `%` and `"` intact.
