[16:34] lovelace: regarding tmux for screen users ... [16:34] tmux configuration is relatively straight-forward, and can be tweaked to act like screen. [16:34] it comes with an example configuration that does just that: [16:35] /usr/share/doc/tmux/examples/screen-keys.conf (on my current system) [16:36] here is a decent run-through of what it does, how it works, and how to reconfigure its defaults: [16:36] http://blog.hawkhost.com/2010/06/28/tmux-the-terminal-multiplexer/ [16:37] the most notable difference in its default config is that the command-key is CTRL-b (screen uses CTRL-a). that was chosen because the original development/testing of tmux was done from within a screen session. :) [16:38] i've given several talks on screen over the years; i suppose i'll have to replace those in the future with talks on tmux ... [16:41] for reference, my own (pretty simple) config can be found here; please don't spam it ... : http://www.deweyonline.com/fossil/tmux-config === jack is now known as Guest26601 === wcchandl1r is now known as wcchandler [19:40] BugeyeD: Thanks! [19:44] * lovelace loves how the instructions talk all about splitting windows into panes, but are absolutely silent on how to get them back into single windows! [19:54] lovelace: that's "break-pane" ... CTRL-! in my config (must be default, because i haven't changed it) [19:55] BugeyeD: Yeah, I found that later, but WAY down the page. [19:55] CTRL- is mapped to next-layout, which i think is pretty nifty. i've been using xmonad as my window manager for several years now, and i'm able to replicate some of what i use that for directly with tmux [19:56] i started with screen-keys.conf to get me started, but eventually just created my own minimal config and am learning the tmux defaults for the rest. [19:56] i like simple configs because they are more portable.
