tmux and tmux-mem-cpu-load

Summary

Builds tmux (terminal multiplexer) and optionally tmux-mem-cpu-load (a CPU/RAM/load monitor for the tmux status bar) from source using Zinit’s configure/make/cmake ices.

Syntax / Usage

tmux only

zinit for \
    configure'--disable-utf8proc' \
    make \
  @tmux/tmux

tmux-mem-cpu-load only

zinit for \
    cmake \
  @thewtex/tmux-mem-cpu-load

tmux + tmux-mem-cpu-load (combined)

zinit id-as for \
    cmake \
  @thewtex/tmux-mem-cpu-load \
    configure'--disable-utf8proc' make \
  @tmux/tmux

Details

tmux

• configure'--disable-utf8proc' — runs ./configure --prefix=$ZPFX --disable-utf8proc to build without the utf8proc library (avoids a common build dependency issue).
• make — compiles and installs tmux to $ZPFX.

tmux-mem-cpu-load

• cmake — runs CMake to configure and build the project (installs to $ZPFX).

Combined recipe

• id-as — assigns the repository name as the plugin ID for each plugin in the combined for block.
• Both plugins share one for statement, ensuring they are installed/updated together.

$ZPFX/bin is automatically on $PATH, so both binaries are available after installation.
