This is basically my environment - everyone keeps trying to convince me to use tmux - but I look at it, and for my use case, it includes no additional features, and I'd need to relearn keyboard shortcuts.
- tombert 9y agoI would think you could relatively easily remap the tmux shortcuts to Screen ones, if that's the only blocker.
- Aloha 9y agobut what does tmux do that screen does not? I dont need split screen mode, for example.
- tombert 9y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but doesn't `screen` do split screen mode? `C-a S` I thought It's not night and day really; tmux is updated a bit more frequently, and I find it easier to configure (I have a custom theme that I think is substantially sexier than the ugly green bar on the bottom). While it's almost certainly cheating, I do think that the mouse integration for tmux is quite good, and I use that semi-often. I don't know how much you care about licenses, but tmux uses the more permissive ISC license. Also, and this really makes no difference to anything, I like the logo for tmux :) So, I dunno, it's mostly a matter of opinion, but I just have grown to prefer tmux.
