Pane.Writer

Writer returns the pane's keyboard as an io.Writer. Bytes written to it are typed into the pane literally, and each newline is the Enter key, so fmt.Fprintln submits a line as a person at the keyboard would. Text with no trailing newline is typed and left on the line.

Description#

A write returns once tmux has taken the keys, before the pane's program has read them; the program interprets what arrives. A line with a trailing newline costs two tmux commands, the text and a separate Enter; buffering whole lines still costs far less than writing bytes one at a time.

A write of any size is typed whole, so io.Copy works: a line longer than tmux takes in one command is sent in pieces.
