I use tmux for doing stuff on servers, but rarely bother locally. The main reason I can think of to do so is if you routinely use a specific multiple shell setup for some particular project —- eg. a tail, an editor and a ready prompt. Otherwise I don’t see much point (though it’s not an issue I’ve explored much).
Btw as you’re an iTerm user you might want to read up on its tmux integration, which is quite cute.
- jfoutz 9y agofor a little while i used #!/bin/bash tmux split-pane -b -p 30 -d; tmux send-keys -t {up-of} 'nyancat^M' "$@" tmux send-keys -t {up-of} '^C' tmux kill-pane -t {up-of} to pop up an obvious animation for longer running processes. like vm startup. When the animation disappears the thing is ready to go. Haven't been bothering with tmux local lately though.
- crispinb 9y ago`nyancat` (as a shell command) puzzled me briefly. Now I see. Not available on macOS, except for unfortunates with a new macbook 'appointed' with a fake keyboard: https://github.com/avatsaev/touchbar_nyancat https://github.com/avatsaev/touchbar_nyancat
