Screen and tmux are almost the same these days. Screen used to not allow side-by-side splits, but it can do that too now.

  It has allowed that for a long, long time.

    Okay, but is it actually good?

      Screen vertical split works fine.

        Let me rephrase that -- is it good enough to use 100% of the time you're in a terminal? Cause that's what I do with tmux and it works phenomenally. Haven't had a similarly good experience with screen before, but I'm open to being wrong.

          Never had any problem with screen. Have lost a couple of sessions in tmux

            With screen splitting?
