I'm a new Tmux user. I have a .tmux.conf file with a bunch of settings, but when I try to source the file it throws a bunch of errors.

# Rather than constraining window size to the maximum size of any client

The issue was invisible bytes creeping inside the document. Only when editing in Vim was I able to see it. Thanks.
