# tmux in your tmux
|
|
|
|
If you are running tmux locally and you shell into another machine to
|
|
access tmux remotely, you will suddenly find yourself in tmux inception.
|
|
You will have a tmux instance running within your local tmux instance. If
|
|
you have the same prefix key set for both, then you may be wondering how
|
|
you can send a tmux command to the *inner* tmux instance.
|
|
|
|
If you press your prefix twice (e.g. `<C-a> <C-a>`), then the second prefix
|
|
will be sent to the inner tmux instance which will then be listening for
|
|
the rest of your command. So, to open a new window within the inner tmux
|
|
instance, you can hit `<C-a> <C-a> c`.
