tmux display-popup

Display a popup running shell-command on target-client.

Syntax

tmux display-popup [-CE] [-c target-client] [-d start-directory] [-h height] [-t target-pane] [-w width] [-x position] [-y position] [command]

Alias: popup.

Behavior

Display a popup running shell-command on target-client. A popup is a rectangular box drawn over the top of any panes. Panes are not updated while a popup is present.

-E closes the popup automatically when shell-command exits. Two -E closes the popup only if shell-command exited with success.

-x and -y give the position of the popup, they have the same meaning as for the display-menu command. -w and -h give the width and height - both may be a percentage (followed by ‘%’). If omitted, half of the terminal size is used.

The -C flag closes any popup on the client.
