Automatic tpm installation

One of the first things we do on a new machine is cloning our dotfiles. Not everything comes with them though, so for example tpm most likely won't be installed.

If you want to install tpm and plugins automatically when tmux is started, put the following snippet in .tmux.conf before the final run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm':

# this patch fix errors 
if [ -e "~/.tmux/plugins/tpm" ]
then
   echo "that exist."
else
 git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm ; ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/install_plugins 
fi
