Where the tmux this process is running inside can be found.

tmux sets $TMUX in every process it starts, holding the socket, the server's pid, and the session — which is how a program launched from a pane can find its way back to the server that launched it without being told.

The session arrives as a bare number where Session/id carries tmux's $ sigil, so it is normalised here. Comparing the two spellings directly is a mismatch that looks like a missing session.

Discussed in Environment

Members

• current(environment:) method The context of the tmux this process is running inside, or nil when it is not running inside one.
• init(parsing:) method Reads the value tmux puts in $TMUX.
• init(socketPath:serverProcessID:sessionID:) method
• server(tmuxExecutable:) method A server addressed at this context's socket.
• serverProcessID property The server process, which is the one thing here that distinguishes two servers that reused a socket path.
• sessionID property The session, normalised to the spelling Session/id uses.
• socketPath property The socket the surrounding server listens on, which is what addressing it again needs.
