+# This configuration file binds many vi- and vim-like bindings to the
+# appropriate tmux key bindings.  Note that for many key bindings there is no
+# tmux analogue.  This is intended for tmux 1.3, which handles pane selection
+# differently from the previous versions
+
+# split windows like vim
+# vim's definition of a horizontal/vertical split is reversed from tmux's
+bind s split-window -v
+bind v split-window -h
+
+# move around panes with hjkl, as one would in vim after pressing ctrl-w
+bind h select-pane -L
+bind j select-pane -D
+bind k select-pane -U
+bind l select-pane -R
+
+# resize panes like vim
+# feel free to change the "1" to however many lines you want to resize by, only
+# one at a time can be slow
+bind < resize-pane -L 3
+bind > resize-pane -R 3
+bind - resize-pane -D 3
+bind + resize-pane -U 3
+
+# bind : to command-prompt like vim
+# this is the default in tmux already
+bind : command-prompt

+# vi-style controls for copy mode
