Ciro Santilli Once upon a time young Ciro Santilli spent lots of time evaluating the features of different terimnals. The many windows of Terminator. The pop-uppiness of Guake/Yakuake.
But then one day he met tmux, and he was enlightened
Terminal choice doesn't matter. Just use tmux.
If we didn't have GUIs, terminal multiplexers would be our desktop environments. E.g. they handle stuff like:It is a thing of beauty.
- window switching
- copy pasting across windows
- screen locking
- clock on the status bar (same one that holds tabs)
Most important things to know:
- kill window: Ctrl + A K
If session autosave was finally mainlined, this would be Nirvana.
