move window between sessions

Yes, you can use the move-window command:

move-window [-d] [-s src-window] [-t dst-window]
           (alias: movew)
This is similar to link-window, except the window at src-window is moved to dst-window.

where src-window and dst-window have the form: session:window.pane (session and window can be either name or id).

So, supposing you have an 'chat' session with an 'irc' window and want to move it to the 'other_session' session you can do (in the tmux prompt):

move-window -s chat:irc -t other_session

If you are already in the chat:irc window you don't need to specify the source so

move-window -t other_session:

will do it.

In the same way, from the 'other_session' session you don't need to specify the target.

movew -d irc:irc_window

If you haven't named you windows/sessions, you have to use their ids.
