I do like minimal stuff so I have avoided most of the terminal with tabs and fancy “features”. Turns out, all I want, I can get from tmux.
A few tips from my usage
- divide usage of session per context:
new-session - inside same context, use windows:
new-windoworprefix+c - Use
list-window(prefix+w) orlist-session(prefix+s) to navigate
If you are a dwm user, I have just set up to open the tmux directly
static const char *cmd_term[] = { "st", "-e", "tmux", NULL };
// inside Key
{ MODKEY, XK_Return, spawn, {.v = cmd_term } }, // terminal
This is interesting because everytime you open the terminal a new session will pop. Hate it or love it.
