This change makes
s:hasRunner()effectively query tmux directly for whether the runner exists. This works for:target-paneas described inman tmux, e.g.:0,1,2, etc.%1,%28, etc.target-windowas described inman tmux, when local pane 0 will be used, e.g.:@1,@7window_index.pane_indexe.g.:3.2The implementation calls
tmux send-keys -t <target_pane>with no keys, so tmux's exit code determines whether the pane is found but no keys are actually sent to the pane.I tend to use a local pane index or sometimes a
window.paneindex, which was broken recently when I updated (I think by 383d711).
