Pane.typed_option
Read one option, decoded according to what tmux declares about it.
Source and package
-
Description#
A flag comes back as
OptionValue::Flagand a number asOptionValue::Number, so a caller does not decide for itself thatonmeans one. Everything else, including user options, stays text. The one way to read a single option;OptionValuesays how reads and writes fit together.Nonemeans the option holds nothing at this pane. A user option, whose name begins with@, exists only while it is set, and a built-in one always exists, so both report an unset option asNone.Errors
Returns an error when tmux does not recognize the option name.

| OCaml | Libtmux Pass the corresponding explicit Options scope; captured tables preserve their source and inheritance policy. |
| Perl | Lib Pass scope => 'pane' and the explicit target ID where applicable; inherited and global reads are deliberate options. |
