I like to work using a separate tmux session for each active project/folder that I'm juggling. This script will either create or attach to a project based on it's name, using fasd to jump to the directory directly. The project will be named based on the basename of the folder, for easy switching using TMUX-s.

Periods are illegal in session names. My project folders are usually domain names and cause this script to fail.
Changing line 6 to the following avoids the issue:
TARGET_NAME=$(basename "$TARGET_DIR" | tr "." "-")
