Welcome to tmux!
|
|
|
|
tmux is a "terminal multiplexer", it enables a number of terminals (or windows)
|
|
to be accessed and controlled from a single terminal. tmux is intended to be a
|
|
simple, modern, BSD-licensed alternative to programs such as GNU screen.
|
|
|
|
This release runs on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, OS X and Solaris.
|
|
|
|
tmux depends on libevent 2.x. Download it from:
|
|
|
|
http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/
|
|
|
|
To build tmux from a release tarball, do:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure && make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
|
|
To get and build the latest from version control:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux/tmux.git
|
|
$ cd tmux
|
|
$ sh autogen.sh
|
|
$ ./configure && make
|
|
|
|
For more information see http://git-scm.com. Patches should be sent by email to
|
|
the mailing list at tmux-users@googlegroups.com.
|
|
|
|
For documentation on using tmux, see the tmux.1 manpage. It can be viewed from
|
|
the source tree with:
|
|
|
|
$ nroff -mdoc tmux.1|less
|
|
|
|
Some common questions are answered in the FAQ file and a more extensive (but
|
|
slightly out of date) guide is available in the OpenBSD FAQ at
|
|
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq7.html#tmux. A rough todo list is in the TODO
|
|
file and some example configurations and a Vim syntax file are in the examples
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
For debugging, running tmux with -v or -vv will generate server and client log
|
|
files in the current directory.
|
|
|
|
tmux mailing lists are available. For general discussion and bug reports:
