Rotate window is the main way that I navigated tmux before I learned select-pane. It allows you to change your focused pane, or rotate the position of the panes easily.

Default keybindings


bind-key        C-o rotate-window
bind-key          o select-pane -t :.+

My keybindings look just a bit different than the default ones, I do not like needing to hit prefix for every command, especially for repeated commands. I set a similar keybinding to the default one that uses mod instead of prefix.


bind -n M-o select-pane -t :.+
bind -n M-O rotate-window
