Script for installing tmux where you don't have root access

It is assumed that standard compilation tools (a C/C++ compiler with autoconf) are available.

This script fetches and compiles the latest version of tmux from github, with its dependencies libevent and ncurses.

One-line install:

git clone https://github.com/jealie/install_tmux.git && ./install_tmux/install_tmux.sh

The latest version of tmux will be installed in $HOME/local/bin/tmux.

Note: if you are using this script to get the latest version of tmux on a fresh Ubuntu install, get the dependencies with:

sudo apt-get install curl libtool pkg-config automake bison
