# Tmux prefix highlight
Plugin that highlights when you press tmux prefix key. Inspired by
[this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12003726/give-a-hint-when-press-prefix-key-in-tmux)
thread on stackoverflow.
Many thanks to [@obxhdx](https://github.com/obxhdx) for showing me this trick.

### Usage
Just add `#{prefix_highlight}` to your left/right status bar.
```tmux.confi
set -g status-right '#{prefix_highlight} | %a %Y-%m-%d %H:%M'
```
The plugin can also be configured to show when copy mode is active; see the
**Configurations** section for details.
### Installation with Tmux Plugin Manager (recommended)
Add plugin to the list of TPM plugins:
```tmux.conf
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-prefix-highlight'
```
Press prefix + I to install it.
### Manual Installation
Clone the repo:
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-prefix-highlight.git ~/clone/path
```
Add this line to your .tmux.conf:
```tmux.conf
run-shell ~/clone/path/prefix_highlight.tmux
```
Reload TMUX environment with:
```bash
$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
```
### Configurations
The colors used for the prefix highlight can be configured:
```tmux.conf
set -g @prefix_highlight_fg 'white' # default is 'colour231'
set -g @prefix_highlight_bg 'blue' # default is 'colour04'
```
The plugin can also be configured to show when copy mode is active. If enabled,
the `#{prefix_highlight}` token will be replaced with the string `Copy` when
copy mode is enabled. The style for copy mode can be configured as a
comma-separated list of colors and attributes:
```tmux.conf
set -g @prefix_highlight_show_copy_mode 'on'
set -g @prefix_highlight_copy_mode_attr 'fg=black,bg=yellow,bold' # default is 'fg=default,bg=yellow'
```
Additionally, the plugin can be configured to attach optional affixes to the
value contained in `#{prefix_highlight}`.
(e.g. `< ^B >`)
```tmux.conf
set -g @prefix_highlight_output_prefix '< '
set -g @prefix_highlight_output_suffix ' >'
```
