Description#

tmux runs the lock-command to lock, so what a locked client shows is that command's business rather than this one's.

Errors

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

Examples#

let guard = libtmux::test::TestServer::new().await?;
let session = guard.server().new_session("locked").await?;
// Locking a session nobody is attached to is accepted and does nothing.
session.lock().await?;
guard.shutdown().await?;

tmux command#

The tmux commands behind lock.

tmux C API#

The C declarations in tmux that implement these commands.

In other ports#
