I'm starting to use tmux and switching window with C-b <number> is kinda uncomfortable, any better solutions ?

    I found this a long time ago https://gist.github.com/spicycode/1229612 and still use some of these today. Really cool stuff. Great for a starting point. I barely use the prefix except for very few things. You can check out my confif here: https://gitlab.com/mrswats/dotfiles/-/blob/main/tmux/tmux.conf

    People often remap the "prefix" from `C-b` to something easier (keys closer together). I have CapsLock modified to be Ctrl/Esc (via https://gitlab.com/interception/linux/plugins/caps2esc) and then I mapped tmux prefix to be `C-a` (CapsLock is 'C' and 'a' is right next to it) for a very convenient prefix.
