tmux_pane:split/2
Split a pane, or the supplied window's active pane, and observe the new pane. Defaults to a detached vertical split. Options and launch semantics are described in the module docs. Performs I/O; a post-creation read error retains the completed mutation rather than pretending that no pane was created.
Source and package
- split(Row, Options) -spec split(tmux
_model: () | tmuxpane _model: (), splitwindow _options ()) -> {ok, tmux_model: ()} | {error, map()}.pane -

Row(tmux_model: () | tmuxpane _model: ()) #window -
Options(split_options ()) #

tmux command#
The tmux commands behind split/2.
tmux C API#
The C declarations in tmux that implement these commands.
Each path starts at a function a command runs, which is degree 1. The degree counts steps from there along the path, and each step is a call or a reference: degree 2 is reached from that function, degree 3 from the next, and so on.
