I have seen a few people recording tmux spilt windows, but google is not pulling up results on how they are doing this. I have had a brief look at the code and args available, but can't see how its done.
All my attempts result in just a single window being recorded.
Anyone have any ideas on how to go about this?

You can do it the following way:
- setup your tmux session (tmux new, create splits etc)
- detach
- run
asciinema rec -c "tmux attach -t session-name"

I guess it would be worth posting this as a short blog post or a wiki page.

Super thanks, this is very useful. I think a quick blog entry would be useful as google will pick it up!

This doesn't seem to work anymore for me on MacOS 10.15.7 / Tmux 3.1c - I just get a black screen when I play the recorded file?
