# tmux-thumbs

![](https://travis-ci.com/fcsonline/tmux-thumbs.svg?branch=master)

A lightning fast version of [tmux-fingers](https://github.com/Morantron/tmux-fingers) written in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/) for copy pasting with vimium/vimperator like hints.

## Usage

Press ( <kbd>prefix</kbd> + <kbd>Space</kbd> ) to highlist in you current tmux
visible pane all text that match specific pattern. The press the highlighted
letter hint to yank the text in your tmux buffer.

### Matched patterns

- File paths
- File in diff
- Git SHAs
- Colors in hex
- Numbers ( 4+ digits )
- Hex numbers
- IP4 addresses
- kubernetes resources
- UUIDs

Those are the list of mattched patterns that will be highlighted by default. If
you want to highlight a pattern that is not in this list you can add one or
more with `--regexp` parameter.

```
cargo install tmux-thumbs
tmux-thumbs -
```

or download the source code and compile it:

```
git clone git@github.com:fcsonline/tmux-thumbs.git && cd tmux-thumbs
cargo build --release
```

This project started as a side project to learn Rust, so I'm sure that is full
of mistakes and areas to be improve. If you think you can tweak the code to
make it better, I'll really appreaciate a pull request. ;)
