Re: [Hampshire] Tmux - the terminal multiplexer
Hi there, I've been using it for a while, it is indeed grand. What are the changes with v 1.8 you find so helpful? Cheers!

Re: [Hampshire] Tmux - the terminal multiplexer
Thanks Benjie, that sounds worth a go! On 15 April 2013 11:27, Benjie Gillam ben...@jemjie.com wrote: There's zoom mode, which is really good if you use a lot of splits - you can do {prefix}z to zoom one pane up to full screen, then {prefix}z to unzoom it again. Also there's text reflowing now (which screen has had for ages) - if you resize a pane then the text inside it will reflow properly. This makes zooming much more useful! Also mouse support is improved - there used to be an issue (at least for me) where scrolling up a buffer worked fine, but scrolling back down would jump to the bottom after a few clicks of the mouse wheel; but now it works how you'd expect. (Yes, I do use the mouse for some things, sometimes!) (Theres more changes too, but these are the ones that stuck out for me.)

I can not see a reason that LUG meetings could not be held there As for minimum age again I have no idea on that, this was just to gauge interest in if myself and the other parties should bother looking into this further if the price was a more sedate £5 or at most £10 would more people consider joining? -- Freakyclown -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk -- I'd be interested in joining! -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --

I switched to a Kingston Orbit (not mentioned so far I think), which comes with optional wrist support. It has a built-in rotatable cuff that acts as a mouse wheel, and it's ambidextrous.

Re: [Hampshire] ls -l
dvtm is a good alternative too, and feels a little more natural for vim users (the default key binding creates a clash with ^g though).
