I would like to bind the tmux find-window prompt to pressing and releasing Shift twice.I have already tried bind-key -n S-S command-prompt find-window -N '%%'This results in no error message, checked with :show-messages, but does not trigger the action when double-tapping Shift.
How to bind (double-)tapping the Shift-Key in tmux?
terminal;x11;keyboard shortcuts;tmux
You can use xcape under x11 to configure Shift to emit e.g. Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F12 when tapped and released. Then you would declare that as a secondary tmux escape key, and assign a Key-binding to Alt+Ctrl+Shift+F12 for command-prompt find-window -N '%%'The exact sequence of commands:At shell prompt:$ xcape -e 'Shift_L=Alt_L|Control_R|Shift_L|F12'At tmux prompt::set-option prefix2 M-C-S-F12:bind M-C-S-F12 command-prompt find-window -N '%%'Now double-tap Shift_L, and on the bottom left of your tmuxyou will see (find-window).With Shift_R=Alt_L|Control_R|Shift_L|F11 you can use Shift_L for inner tmux, and Shift_R for outer tmux, if you nest them.Note: I had previously posted this answer with F15, but that did not work as expected , because @Gilles says: F13 - F20 need to be declared in terminfo.
