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-window or prefix+c
• Use list-window (prefix+w) or list-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.

I am starting to explore tmux and emacsclient -t. But it is annoying that emacs gui and in the tmux terminal was being colored differently. The solution?

set -g default-terminal "tmux-256color"
