Feature idea: Send command w/o executing it

[ThiefMaster]

I have some ssh whatever commands in my tmuxp config; and some of those require multi-factor auth so running them automatically when launching the session is not great.

Currently I use workarounds such as read && ssh whatever so the ssh command doesn't run immediately, but I think an option to just send the command but not the ENTER key to actually execute it would be much nicer.

@ThiefMaster I am considering adding something for this. Have a suggestion for what the yaml should look like? e.g. send_keys: false in the command of a pane?

P.S. Have you tried this? #293 (comment)

cc: #293

[ThiefMaster]

send_enter: false or execute_command: false maybe?

[tony]

We will add that soon, then (send_keys=False for last command in a pane)

[tony]

Did you try adding a \ to the end of the command yet?

[ThiefMaster]

nope - but in any case that would require changing something (e.g. deleting the backspace) just like my read && workaround ;)

[tony]

Got it

send_keys: false will be simple enough to add and will resolve this and #293

[thiagowfx]

send_keys: false sounds sensible / reasonable. dry-run: true is an alternative I'd suggest.

I am going to move this to the oldest issue
