setBuffer ( name : : string , data : : string ) → Promise<void> method [source] ¶ method [source] ¶ setBuffer

Put a string into a named paste buffer.

Empty data stores nothing. tmux exits zero for set-buffer -b name "" and creates no buffer at all, so the name a caller thinks they just wrote is absent — and they learn that from whatever reads it next, which points at the wrong call. Check before storing content that may be empty.
