The default keybinding for copy-mode `-[` is one that is just so
awkward for me to hit that I end up not using it at all. I was on a
call with my buddy Nic this week and saw him just fluidly jump into
`copy-mode` in an effortless fashion, so I had to ask him for his
keybinding and it just made sense. Enter, that's it. So I have addedt
his to my `~/.tmux.conf` along with one for `alt-enter` and have found
myself using it way more so far.

## Setting copy-mode to enter

To do this I just popped open my `~/.tmux.conf` and added the following.
Now I can get to `copy-mode` with `-Enter` which is `control-b
Enter`, or `alt-enter`.

```bash
bind Enter copy-mode
bind -n M-Enter copy-mode
```
