Maybe tmux has something like screen, a combination to send a C-a (or |
| 19 |
any other prefix combination you set) to the running terminal. |

I'd set something else -- although C-a is easy to type (at least here, |
| 22 |
control in home row), it's used in some applications, like anything that |
| 23 |
uses readline (if in Emacs mode; it seems readline also has a vi mode) |
| 24 |
and Emacs itself. |
