ERROR: '/home/jason/.local/share/tmux/plugins/tmux-fzf-url/fzf-url.sh '' screen' returned 2

It's been a while since I used this, but now everything works as expected until I select a URL and then I get this error:

'/home/jason/.local/share/tmux/plugins/tmux-fzf-url/fzf-url.sh '' screen' returned 2

What does this mean?

Almost same here, got

~/.config/tmux/plugins/tmux-fzf-url/fzf-url.sh '' screen ''' returned 1

I don't think I have tried using this since I posted this, but I just now thought, why does it mention "screen"? Does this plugin work with screen as well or something? Is it trying to pass the command to screen rather than tmux?

[tony-sol]

No, it doesn't use screen (if you mean screen as terminal multiplexer)
In my case, there is error in read processing, 'cause i've got read failed 9: Bad file descriptor after some research

The plugin is actually working perfectly fine for me.

These are my settings in my tmux.conf:

# tmux-fzf-URL
set -g @plugin 'wfxr/tmux-fzf-url'
set -g @fzf-url-fzf-options '-w 50% -h 60% --multi -0 --no-preview --layout reverse --prompt "url: " --no-info --pointer ÔùÅ --color "prompt:#bd93f9,pointer:#bd93f9"'
set -g @fzf-url-history-limit '50'

It works within a popup windows, I have fzf aliased to something called fzfp-tmux and I can't remember if that is a name I came up with myself.

I just remembered something which may help: When I was having problems like this with a couple of tmux plugins (I can't remember if one of them was this one), it worked on some computers but now on other, and I realised that the ones it didn't work on were Debian-based. Make sure that you have gawk installed, so that awk is aliased to gawk and not mawk. Try:

awk --version
