I wrote a tool **retmux** https://github.com/sk1418/retmux it can restore your tmux sessions/layouts/path in window/even text on screen easily. just `retmux -r` but executing command is not supported. You may want to take a look. — Kent, Dec 10 '14 at 10:04

There is a script started tmux, splitted for to panes and started ls in the left pane and top in the right one.

#!/bin/sh

tmux new-session -d -s main ;
tmux split-window -h ;
tmux select-pane -L
tmux send-keys -t main 'ls' C-m
tmux select-pane -R
tmux send-keys -t main 'top' C-m
tmux attach-session -d -t main
