Indrajit Raychaudhuri 1ff9421f7b general: Update documentation better qualifying runcom paths

Zsh and Prezto files don't always reside in `~/`. Instead, they have
a more spec compliant location (`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/`). Make them
unambiguous in the documentation. Likewise, for `$GNUPGHOME`.

Further, add instruction for optionally setting up Prezto in
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.

While at this, also add clarification on relative ordering of some of
the modules, apply more formatting tweaks and doc improvements.

Tmux

Defines tmux aliases and provides for auto launching it at start-up.

Settings

Auto-Start

Starts a tmux session automatically when Zsh is launched.

To enable this feature when launching Zsh in a local terminal, add the following line to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc:

zstyle ':prezto:module:tmux:auto-start' local 'yes'

To enable this feature when launching Zsh in a SSH connection, add the following line to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc:

zstyle ':prezto:module:tmux:auto-start' remote 'yes'

In both cases, it will create a background session named prezto if the tmux server is not started.

You can change the default session name with:

zstyle ':prezto:module:tmux:session' name '<YOUR DEFAULT SESSION NAME>'

With auto-start enabled, you may want to control how multiple sessions are managed. The destroy-unattached option of tmux controls if the unattached sessions must be kept alive, making sessions available for later use, configured in tmux.conf:

set-option -g destroy-unattached [on | off]

iTerm2 Integration

iTerm2 offers significant integration with tmux. This can be enabled by adding the following line to ${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc:

zstyle ':prezto:module:tmux:iterm' integrate 'yes'

Read iTerm2 and tmux Integration for more information.

Aliases

tmuxa attaches or switches to a tmux session.
tmuxl lists sessions managed by the tmux server.

Caveats

On macOS, launching tmux can cause the error launch_msg(...): Socket is not connected to be displayed, which can be fixed by installing reattach-to-user-namespace, available in Homebrew, and adding the following to tmux.conf:

set-option -g default-command "reattach-to-user-namespace -l $SHELL -l"

Furthermore, tmux is known to cause kernel panics on macOS. A discussion about this and Prezto has already been opened.
