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://libevent.org

It also depends on ncurses, available from:

	http://invisible-island.net/ncurses/

To build and install tmux from a release tarball, use:

	$ ./configure && make
	$ sudo make install

tmux can use the utempter library to update utmp(5), if it is installed - run
configure with --enable-utempter to enable this.

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, a rough todo list is in the
TODO file and an example configuration in example_tmux.conf.

A vim(1) syntax file is available at:

	https://github.com/ericpruitt/tmux.vim
	https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ericpruitt/tmux.vim/master/vim/syntax/tmux.vim

And a bash(1) completion file at:

For debugging, running tmux with -v or -vv will generate server and client log
files in the current directory.
