+1 for tmux. I still have two pet peeves with tmux. Nicholas (maintainer of tmux), if you're reading this ... :) All in all, tmux is one of the greatest programs ever. Even when working locally, I prefer to work within a tmux session. I've got single-key pane-switching shortcuts. Along with the inability of native terminals to create a vertical split (AFAIK), this is a significant productivity enhancer. 1. Too aggressive buffering of pane output. runaway output on some panes (due to e.g. a bug in the program running in the window, not tmux) will really hose things up so bad that the only way to fix it is to disconnect the underlying ssh connection. I'd like to be able to specify a maximum data rate on a per-client basis. If any client is backed up, freeze panes visible to that client. 2. The keep changing the pane switching key bindings with every new release. :| With 1.5, they've taken away the ability to rotate thru every pane in a window in order: i.e., no concept of a "next" window. Only left and right. 3. I wish they'd add the option to move to the "next clockwise pane" or "next counterclockwise pane". Maybe the new left-right infra might help with that. Yeah, yeah, it's open source. I should probably go fix it myself instead of whining on a forum. Maybe I will one of these days. :)
