Split tmux windows with same keys as in Emacs?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP

In emacs, you split a window with C-x 2 (one above the other) or C-x 3 (one next to the other).
How can I get the same key bindings in tmux?
Also, once a window is split, in emacs you cycle through them with C-x o. Can I configure tmux to use the same key?

Have you read the man page for tmux? It should be obvious what to do. Unfortunately if you do it, then C-x stops working as a prefix key in Emacs because tmux will interpret it instead.

It would be nice if there were a tmux command I could use to disable those keys just for the one window in which I run emacs. Alternatively, I'd be happy to useC-b C-x 2instead of the normalC-x 2to split windows.

Have a look at the must read at http://pragprog.com/book/bhtmux/tmux; you'll get anything you need
Further on, try out this:
# Setting the prefix from C-b to C-d
# START:prefix
set -g prefix C-d
# END:prefix
# Ensure that we can send Ctrl-A to other apps
bind C-d send-prefix
# Free the original Ctrl-b prefix keybinding unbind C-b
unbind C-b
bind | split-window -h
bind _ split-window -vAnd this for moving between panes:
bind h select-pane -L
bind j select-pane -D
bind k select-pane -U
bind l select-pane -RBoth from the previous reference and the man page.
