# Faster Command Sequences Upon starting to use tmux, I noticed that I had to
# add a noticeable delay between two characters in a command sequence for it to
# recognize the command, for example between the C-a and n in C-a n. This is
# because tmux is waiting for an escape sequence. Fix that by setting escape
# time to zero.
