A tmux plugin that provides a hackable, dynamic status bar made of beautiful powerline-style segments, written purely in bash. It integrates with the Tmux Plugin Manager (tpm) and offers configurable segments for a customized terminal status bar.

Use cases

  • customize my tmux status bar with powerline segments
  • show dynamic info like weather or battery in tmux status bar
  • make my terminal status bar look better
  • find a hackable tmux status bar plugin
  • install a powerline theme for tmux via tpm

When to choose

  • you use tmux and want a visually appealing, segment-based status bar
  • you want to customize status bar segments with simple bash scripts
  • you manage tmux plugins with tpm

When to avoid

  • you don't use tmux
  • you prefer a non-bash or prebuilt status bar with no scripting
  • you need a status bar outside of tmux (e.g., system-wide bar)
