Entering tmux control mode without attaching session

[Jared Stafford]

I was trying to write a script that uses control mode to monitor
window changes. However, if I run "tmux -C", it creates a new session
and attaches to it. If I run "tmux -C list-sessions", I get the output
for list-sessions, but it exits immediately.

Is there some way I can run tmux in control mode and run multiple
commands without actually attaching to a session?

No, it's a client like any other, you have to attach to a session.
