is_vim command doesn't work in tmux

Awaiting more info from user

Sorry for the misleading title.

I use this snippet to bind some conditional keys in tmux depending on what application I'm currently using. When I use fig, the command ps -o state= -o comm= -t '#{pane_tty}' does not return the app I'm currently using. Without fig, there is no such an issue with that command.

Tks.

i brought this up in the discord once, a few months ago, had the same issue -- same issue breaks this plugin https://github.com/christoomey/vim-tmux-navigator -- i stopped using Fig because of it. was actually, serendipitously, just checking in to see if it had been fixed yet after seeing the most recent product email, but it appears not 😭

I created a workaround in vim-tmux-navigator for this here: christoomey/vim-tmux-navigator#295 (comment). It seems like the plugin does not support vim running within any process that spawns a pseudoterminal within a tmux pane (which Fig does), but I know other members of our community have had success with this solution. Let me know if this fixes the issue for you

Closing this issue as a duplicate of #705 which has a more descriptive title. Can continue the conversation there if people continue to have compatibility issues with vim-tmux-navigator
