How do I equally balance tmux(1) split panes?
I'm looking for a behavior that is similar to how vim(1) handles its split windows with ^w =. I know tmux(1) has predefined layouts with ^b Meta[1-5], but this likely does not have the layout that I am currently using.
When splitting a window, it halves the current window for both panes. Split again, and it halves that pane into two new. Combine vertical and horizontal splits, and they continue to halve each other, each new pane getting smaller and smaller.
How can I keep the new layout I've just created, but have all vertical and horizontal splits equally balanced, like vim(1) does with ^w =?

The description for the "tiled" layout says "Panes are spread out as evenly as possible over the window in both rows and columns." Could you explain how what you want is different from this please?

Just to put this here in case it helps someone else, because I am constantly confused, "vertical" and "horizontal" are the direction of the spacing--that is, choosing even-vertical will create a layout where the three panes are stacked vertically, equal in height, where even-horizontal will create a layout where the three panes are side-by-side, equal in width

I don't know any single key shortcut, but maybe this helps you:
You can try to write some script to do the layout, and bind a key to the script. You can do this by using tmuxcommand pipe-pane [-o] [-t target-pane] [shell-command] to write the current layout to the script. Next you need to read a layout prepared by the script using tmuxcommand select-layout .

I was having a hard time finding the magic incantation to split into 4 equal quadrants, so here it is:
# Split session into FOUR EQUAL quadrants
tmux selectp -t 0 # select the first (0) pane
tmux splitw -h -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 0 # select the first (0) pane
tmux splitw -v -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 2 # select the new, second (2) pane
tmux splitw -v -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 0 # go back to the first pane

I don't know any single key shortcut, but maybe this helps you:
You can try to write some script to do the layout, and bind a key to the script. You can do this by using tmuxcommand pipe-pane [-o] [-t target-pane] [shell-command] to write the current layout to the script. Next you need to read a layout prepared by the script using tmuxcommand select-layout .

I was having a hard time finding the magic incantation to split into 4 equal quadrants, so here it is:
# Split session into FOUR EQUAL quadrants
tmux selectp -t 0 # select the first (0) pane
tmux splitw -h -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 0 # select the first (0) pane
tmux splitw -v -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 2 # select the new, second (2) pane
tmux splitw -v -p 50 # split it into two halves
tmux selectp -t 0 # go back to the first pane

The description for the "tiled" layout says "Panes are spread out as evenly as possible over the window in both rows and columns." Could you explain how what you want is different from this please?
