tmux command#

The tmux commands behind split_pane.

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.
