Description

Awesome project guys 😎

Following Primeagen's bindings I made a binding for opening tmuxp sessions from within tmux, which might be useful to include in the README.

bind-key S command-prompt -p "tmux session name:" 'run-shell "tmuxp load %%'' -y"'

You can do an alternative with -d if you don't want to attach right away.

The message [Loading] .tmuxp/session.yaml does seem to hang in the 1st window so the binding might need tweaking 🤔

There was an original issue #56 which had some Python based solution but the link doesn't work anymore and the issue got closed as stale.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the README and the tmux binding shown in the issue, then reproduce loading a tmuxp session from within tmux using the referenced .tmuxp/session.yaml. Check the earlier issue #56 for context. Done means the supported binding is documented and its loading behavior is clarified or corrected.
