Menu
Panes are automatically named with their index, machine name and current command. To change the machine name you can run <C-b>R which will prompt you to enter a new name. *Pane renaming only works when you are in a shell.
Tmux uses the keybinding 'Prefix' followed by 'Ctrl+o' to cycle around the panes. When you use this key-binding for the first time, it moves the pane in one position clockwise.
The recently released tmux 1.7 includes the renumber-windows session option (keeps window numbers gapless), and the move-window -r command (does a one-time renumbering of windows). If you want “gapless” numbers for all sessions, then you could put set -g renumber-windows on in your config file (once you have tmux 1.7).
As shown in a comment to the main post: set-option -g allow-rename off in your .tmux.conf file
As suggested on the Super User link, setting the following variable in your .bashrc or .zshrc seems to solve the issue:
DISABLE_AUTO_TITLE=true
# set-window-option -g automatic-rename off
set-option -g allow-rename off
Comment the first one, and set the second one, in the ~/.tmux.conf It works for me.
.bashrc or .zshrc file and add this lineexport DISABLE_AUTO_TITLE=true
~/.tmux.conf fileset-option -g allow-rename off
This can be done either from within the tmux, by pressing Ctrl+B and then : to bring up a command prompt, and typing:
:source-file ~/.tmux.conf
Or simply from a shell:
$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
