Tmux, How to type the prefix key itself

Question

I set the prefix key to backquote， I can't type a backquote in vim. when I press `, it took it as the prefix key, then nothing inserts into the editor.

How can I input a backquote in vim, when I'm under tmux. Thanks~

You need to bind a key to "send-prefix" or "send-keys '`'". Many people bind so that pressing the prefix twice sends the prefix character, for you that would be:

bind '`' send-keys '`'
