Problem Restoring Multitail with splits (stripping comma) #154

Description

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but when running multitail with horizontal & vertical splits, the session is saved but an important comma is stripped and replaced with a space. On the next restart multitail errors with file not found.

Command that works:
multitail -s 2 -sn 1,3 /var/log/dmesg /var/log/syslog /var/log/auth.log /var/log/mail.log

Command that's saved to the resurrect file (see attached) that errors:
multitail -s 2 -sn 1 3 /var/log/dmesg /var/log/syslog /var/log/auth.log /var/log/mail.log

Running Tmux 2.2 and the latest tmux-resurrect on Ubuntu 14.04 (Openbox/LXDE).
My .tmux.conf renamed to .txt and a resurrect file are attached.

EDIT: This isn't a huge deal breaker as the problem only occurs when log files are merged in the same column or pane. I just went with:
multitail -s 2 /var/log/dmesg /var/log/syslog /var/log/auth.log /var/log/mail.log
which creates 2 columns and 2 rows.

On a sidenote, does anyone know how to make the clock load automatically in a specific pane after a restart? I'm still relatively new to tmux but loving it so far; please forgive me if this is a dumb question.
