Inability to open large numbers of panes

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Getting the error message "create pane failed: pane too small" when starting with many hosts. Seems this is a new issue, possibly in a later release of tmux? The issue didn't occur before.

The following patch seems to work, although I have no idea of the details of how tmux layouts work.
