format

Expand a tmux format string in this pane's context.

This returns display-message output instead of showing it in front of a person with Self::display . See crate::Server::format for the shell boundary around command and recursive formats, and for why a % in the template is a time conversion rather than literal text.

Errors

Returns an error when tmux cannot be reached or refuses the format.

Examples

let guard = libtmux::test::TestServer::new().await?;
let session = guard.server().new_session("shown").await?;
let window = session.active_window().await?.expect("a window");
let pane = window.active_pane().await?.expect("a pane");
let expanded = pane.format("#{pane_id}").await?;
assert_eq!(expanded.to_string_lossy(), pane.id().to_string());
guard.shutdown().await?;
