This is really damn cool. It just comes too late for me. I have adapted to shared tmux sessions -- that allow me to work with shiver the dirty emacs users.

- gingerlime 13y agosame here, and tmux lets you share more than just your vim session. We use it regularly for pair programming, some times even in the same office, each one at his own computer. I liked that coVim launches its own server, so you don't rely on having to ssh to the same box, but at the same time, I imagine ssh should be safer.
- luuse 13y agoWe use the same setup and really like that you share the entire terminal instead of just the editor. Is there any good reason to use this instead of tmux sessions? While it's kinda cool i don't understand why people are trying to put everything in vim instead of using other complementary tools.
- jamesbritt 13y agoWhat seems to be the key feature is the text coloring, which I don't think you can get using screen or tmux.
- gingerlime 13y agoAh! ok, that's a major plus for CoVim then. Looks like I somehow missed the coolest feature.
- legind 13y agotmux supports 256 colors with the -2 flag. I just add an alias in my .bashrc to make this the default.
- gingerlime 13y agoI think he meant having different cursors, each with a different colour assigned to a person, and being able to use each cursor independently. not just colours in general...
- CatMtKing 13y agoDo you mean via wemux? https://github.com/zolrath/wemux https://github.com/zolrath/wemux
- MetaCosm 13y agoNo, vanilla tmux does it.
