Yes it's technically interesting but am I alone in thinking that it sort of defeats the purpose of using tmux in the first place?
I use tmux partly because I come from a background of low resources, but also because I want my essential tools to use as little resources as possible so that they always work as well as possible on any system.
Yet iTerm proposes that you use their GUI tabs, split their GUI terminals instead of drawing it all with tmux in one text console.
I guess you sacrifice some resources for usability.
- boomlinde 12y agoIf your main purpose for using tmux is sparing resources, then sure, but I think most people use tmux for session management, persistence and multiplexing. If I can use these features in a way that is better integrated with the windowing system, and still be able to attach to the session from a plain terminal remotely, I'm not going to complain.
