Pane.breakOut

Move this pane out into a window of its own, in the session it is in.

Source and package

Qualified name: Pane.breakOut
Module: pane
Declared in: Pane
Package: libtmux
Source: packages/libtmux/src/pane.ts
Other languages: Perl Erlang PowerShell Julia Elixir Haskell Common Lisp PythonRubyLuaRustGoJavaC#C++Swift Kotlin Scala OCaml F# Clojure

Description#

tmux places a break with no destination in whichever session is current, which is the attached one rather than this pane's.

On tmux 3.7 exactly, a break with no name crashes the server, so a breakOut() without a windowName is refused there before anything is sent.

await pane.breakOut("extracted");

Parameters

The tmux commands behind breakOut.

The C declarations in tmux that implement these commands.
