* What is tmux? How is it different from GNU screen?

* How is tmux different from GNU screen? What else does it offer?

XXX TODO
|
||||
tmux offers several advantages over screen:
|
||||
|
||||
- a clearly-defined client-server model: windows are independent entities which
|
||||
may be attached simultaneously to multiple sessions and viewed from multiple
|
||||
clients (terminals), as well as moved freely between sessions within the same
|
||||
tmux server;
|
||||
- a consistent, well-documented command interface, with the same syntax
|
||||
whether used interactively, as a key binding, or from the shell;
|
||||
- easily scriptable from the shell;
|
||||
- multiple paste buffers;
|
||||
- emacs key layouts;
|
||||
- options to limit window size;
|
||||
- a cleaner, modern, easily extended, BSD-licensed codebase.
|
||||
|
||||
There are still a few features screen includes that tmux omits:
|
||||
|
||||
- builtin serial and telnet support; this is bloat and is unlikely to be added
|
||||
to tmux;
|
||||
- a more customisable status line, albeit with an awful syntax;
|
||||
- wider platform support, for example IRIX and AIX;
|
||||
- split windows; this is planned and should appear eventually.
