to load source file: 

tmux source-file <path>


You can add something like this to the key bindings to your .tmux.conf file:
bind q send-keys "/home/jackhab/bin/tmux-new-session.sh" \; send-keys "Enter"
And in tmux-new-session.sh you can have:
#! /usr/bin/env bash
tmux new-session "monitor1"
tmux split-window -v "monitor2"
tmux select-pane -U
tmux split-window -v -h -p 60 "monitor3"
...
exit





Create new session sees and call the window task1

tmux new-session -s sess -d -n task1

the -d in the last command puts it in the background
Attach to a session: 
tmux a -t mysess

List sessions: 

tmux list-session 2>&1

Ctrl-b l (Move to the previously selected window)
Ctrl-b w (List all windows / window numbers)
Ctrl-b <window number> (Move to the specified window number, the default bindings are from 0 – 9)
Ctrl-b q  (Show pane numbers, when the numbers show up type the key to goto that pane)






tmux new-session -s consoles -n amazona "cd ruby/amazona ; rails s" \; split-window "cd ruby/amazona; rails c" \; split-window "mongod" \; split-window -h "redis-server /usr/local/etc/redis.conf"






Managing tmux sessions:
$ tmux      # start tmux server
$ tmux at   # attach running sessions to a terminal
$ tmux ls   # list running tmux sessions

Sharing sessions between terminals:
$ tmux new -s session_name # make new named session
$ tmux at -t session_name  # attach to exist session (allowing shared sessions)

Commands (used within a running tmux session):

NOTE: All commands need to be prefixed with the action key.
      By default, this is CTRL-b

 c  - create new window
n/l - next/last window
 &  - kill current window

 %  - split window, adding a vertical pane to the right
    - horizontal split is not bound to a key
←/→ - move focus to left/right pane
↑/↓ - move focus to upper/lower pane
 
 !  - Break current pane into new window
 x  - Kill the current pane.
 d  - detach the current client

 [  - enter copy mode (then use emacs select/yank keys)
      * press CTRL-SPACE or CTRL-@ to start selecting text
      * move cursor to end of desired text
      * press ALT-w to copy selected text

 ]  - paste copied text

 ?  - show tmux key bindings

This is my tmux.conf, I hope you find something nice in it. =)
