// what it does
`list-buffers` (alias lsb) prints all of tmux's paste buffers with their names, sizes, and a content preview, most recent first. Use it to see what you've accumulated from copies and captures before deciding which one to paste.
// tmux command
: list-buffers// gotcha
Automatically named buffers are `buffer0`, `buffer1`, and so on from an ever-incrementing counter — `buffer0` is the oldest surviving one and the highest-numbered (shown first) is the newest; the names don't shift as buffers come and go. tmux keeps at most `buffer-limit` automatic buffers (50 by default), discarding the oldest beyond that.
