When starting a nested tmux, do not revert the tmux prefix in the parent tmux to the default (C-b) as it intercepts Ctrl-b from the nested tmux. Instead, bind the tmux prefix to C-F12, which is unlikely to be used and parallels the M-F12 binding used for active handler. For example, to reproduce the problem: 1) Start tmux 2) Start vim in paraent tmux - Ctrl-f works to go forward a page - Ctrl-b works to go back a page 2) Create nested tmux (C-a C-s) 3) Start vim in nested tmux - Ctrl-f works to go forward a page - Ctrl-b does not work to go back a page
