Just curious since I read the same thing in a programming book recently (21st century C). So what's the greatness that terminal multiplexors offer over tabbed terminals? Especially for software development? For sure I use screen at the remote end of ssh connections where I don't want the application like irssi to die if the connection goes down but other than that? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
