Tmux quits whenever I try to type the capital letter "Z". That is, SHIFT-Z quits tmux.

Tmux exits with 0 return code.

Tested with version 3.0a on CentOS. If I can't upgrade the tmux version, is there a workaround?

    What is the output of tmux list-keys -T root | grep Z?

  • I'm an idiot! it includes ` bind -n Z kill-session` -- I must have blindly copied that from somewhere. User error! If you convert your comment to an answer I can mark it correct. Perhaps someone else in the internet blindly copied the same .tmux.conf.

The tmux.conf had this line:

bind -n Z kill-session

so tmux was just doing what I was telling it to do.

As @KamilMaciorowski suggested, tmux list-keys -T root | grep <the keybinding that is weird> is helpful in diagnosing this sort of thing.
