I felt the same way, but ended up learning tmux because you can't make asciinema span multiple tabs or panes, and sometimes you want to make an asciicast with more than one shell.
It's handy to know sometimes, but if I have a sane window manager at hand then I don't use tmux. They're not common, sane window managers, so I use it occasionally.
- 3np 3y agoIf you just want a super simple tiling WM for demos and such, ratpoison is as minimal as it gets. StumpWM similar concept but more powerful.
- sickill 3y ago> because you can't make asciinema span multiple tabs or panes Of course you can: 1. create tmux session, create splits/panes 2. detach 3. asciinema rec 4. attach (inside asciinema rec) This way asciinema records your whole terminal, and tmux running inside of it. In other words, if you have it like this: terminal -> tmux -> pane -> asciinema rec asciinema can't see outside of the pane its running in. However, if you have it like this: terminal -> asciinema rec -> tmux attach asciinema sees all of it because its parent is your terminal, not tmux pane.
