I like having a red bar for tmux running as root and a blue one for running it as a normal user, e.g. for root:
set -g status-style "bg=red"
I also like to have the bar on top and the status centered:
set -g status-justify absolute-centre
set -g status-position top
Do you use this when running tmux remotely?
(I only run it in my own machines so it never runs as root anyway)
I change the color of the bar in every server I've set it up so I know absolutely where I am.
Aren't you going to run out of colors to pick?
My approach is to color ssh sessions to prod servers red, less dangerous servers orange, my own non shared computers blue.
