tmux - more modern, less crufty. If that's too short an answer, look at configuration examples for screen vs. tmux: screen's configuration is so arcane it's impossible to read. The absolute worst is attempting to configure the status bar (assuming you use that). tmux's config isn't great, but a normal human being has some hope of actually reading it. You should also look at Byobu ( http://byobu.co/ ) - I prefer my terminal multiplexer raw, but you may not. On Thu, 20 Jun 2019 at 23:24, William Park via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:
Hi all,
I try to use WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) whenever possible, even though I have VMware and VirtualBox available. One thing that WSL terminal lacks is "tab" that all other terminals have. So, that calls for Screen and Tmux. But, which one? And, why? -- William Park <opengeometry@yahoo.ca> --- Talk Mailing List talk@gtalug.org https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
