tmux

tmux is a terminal multiplexor that "lets you switch easily between several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the background) and reattach them to a different terminal."

Kill a session: tmux kill-session -t [name of session]
Split terminal into two panes vertically: Ctrl+b, then release and hit %
Switch between panes: Ctrl+b, then release and hit o
Detach the current session: Ctrl+b, then release and hit d
List sessions: %tmux list-sessions (returns a numbered list of sessions)
Attach a session: %tmux attach -t [name of session]
