[tmux] How to rename a pane in tmux?

Also when scripting, you can specify a name when creating the window with -n <window name>. For example:

# variable to store the session name
SESSION="my_session"

# set up session
tmux -2 new-session -d -s $SESSION

# create window; split into panes
tmux new-window -t $SESSION:0 -n 'My Window with a Name'
