fzy-tmux: Use named pipe for conveying exit code
On a couple of occasions I've seen the following error being reported by the fzy-tmux script: > head: cannot open '/tmp/tmp.qUbDwrPLxQ/ret' for reading: No such file or directory > /usr/bin/fzy-tmux: line 41: exit: : numeric argument required The issue seems to be that PATH_FIFO_RET is not yet created but we already try to read from it, causing the read to fail. With this change we use a named pipe which we create before the actual tmux invocation, preventing this case from happening. Credit for the fix goes to @zsugabubus. Closes: #143
