bind-key -n equivalent

[BartSte]

Is it possible to omit the prefix key of tmux-easy-motion? Similarly to omitting Tmux its prefix using the bind-key -n command.

My use case: when I am in copy-mode, I have unassigned keys left that I want to bind to tmux-easy-motion command directly. For example: when I press "k" I want to run the "@easy-motion-binding-w" directly (without having to press the prefix "Space").

My attempts to achieving this were:

• Setting the tmux-easy-motion prefix to ""

  set -g @easy-motion-copy-mode-prefix ""

  which did not work.
• Binding "k" to a sequence of keys:

  bind-key -T copy-mode-vi k send-keys " " w 

  which did send a "Space" and a "w" but it triggered the default "w" and not the "@easy-motion-binding-w".

Thanks for the good plugin!

I solved this as follows:

cmd="no-prefix-easymotion '#{session_id}' '#{window_id}' '#{pane_id}'"
bind -T copy-mode-vi k run-shell -b "$cmd w"

here k is directly bound to the easymotion 'w' command, where
no-prefix-easymotion is the following execuable:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

tmuxpid() {
    [[ "${TMUX}" =~ .*,(.*),.* ]] && echo "${BASH_REMATCH[1]}"
}

server_pid=$(tmuxpid)
bash -c "~/.tmux/plugins/tmux-easy-motion/scripts/easy_motion.sh '${server_pid}' '${1}' '${2}' '${3}' ${4}"

I am no a 100% sure why I need the bash -c though. But it works.
