Collapsed server groups show a count of the servers inside. Starting a session works again on tmux 3.2 and older, along with general improvements to tmux native mode. Improved support for DEC 2026 to avoid terminal flicker. Holding alt while tapping/clicking sends the click through to mouse-aware programs (tmux, Midnight Commander), including trackpad/mouse right-clicks; shift keeps the tap local for cursor placement and selection. Esc, ctrl and alt on the keyboard bar can be customized with tap-and-hold.
