I agree wholeheartedly. Especially when most of the work I do is on a remote server anyway, so I'm already in tmux. I still use i3wm on older laptops just for the battery life gains, but 95% of what I do is Firefox + Terminal emulator, and alt-tab is just as fast. My main workstation is just gnome and it's fine.
(Sidenote: is there any sort of linux libvte-based terminal emulator that has tmux integration a-la iTerm2? For when I do use i3, it would be really nice if I could spawn a new terminal on a remote server, attaching through an existing tmux session.)
- boogies 6y agoRe. Sidenote: It doesn't look like there are many terminal emulators with tmux built in¹, but you can bind a keyboard shortcut to `xterm -e tmux attach'. (rxvt[-unicode] and st also support the -e flag, to run a given command instead of the default shell). 1: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/189805/what-terminal-emulators-support-tmux-control-mode https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/189805/what-termina...
- nickysielicki 6y agoThat would work if I was running tmux locally, but what about when I’m running tmux on a remote server?
- boogies 6y agoMaybe use `xterm -e remote-tmux' where `remote-tmux' is a small script in your $PATH similar to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27613209/how-to-automatically-start-tmux-on-ssh-session#27614878 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27613209/how-to-automati... ?
