Running tmux 2.0

In tmux.conf:

set-option -t 8 default-terminal screen

Starting tmux:
$ tmux new-session -s 8 \; attach

gives:

tmux.conf:16: session not found: 8
tmux.conf:16: couldn't set 'default-terminal'


Confirmed gives a session with tmux list-session:
8: 1 windows (created Sun May 17 11:32:47 2015) [210x64] (attached)

Where is the knot?
Is it possible to give the default-terminal on commandline?

Thanks
Elimar

You can't set options for sessions which don't yet exist.

Settings in tmux.conf

new-session -ds 8¬
set-option -t 8 default-terminal "screen"¬

doesn't work either?
