See below quick start to quickly install tmux
, it comes with a default configuration from Elliott Minns at Dreams of Code.
"tmux
is an open-source terminal multiplexer for Unix-like operating systems. It allows multiple terminal sessions to be accessed simultaneously in a single window. It is useful for running more than one command-line program at the same time. It can also be used to detach processes from their controlling terminals, allowing remote sessions to remain active without being visible." - Wikipedia
