Sorry Lee, reading what i wrote bounced back to me makes me remember how imperfect i am and i won't correct here those imperfections so you can feed on them. I want to add, if it were not clear, that all the commands i mentionned were to be used within a running instance of tmux. Now I wrote it.
Also, this wasn't the place for a speech on the beauty of the client-server architecture of tmux and many others of its (great) abilities but a getting-started point. any more precision required to ignit the engin, don't hesitate to ask, the community is very helpful JClu 20140404 ----- c...@free.fr a écrit : > hi Lee, > please don't troll or start a flame war :-) > you just show how little you used tmux so let's go to the basic > so you can enjoy the ride with us. > > In fact any time you run the tmux command from your shell with no > parameter whatsoever and with its default configuration, you start > what is called a new session showing you a new window with a single > pane in it.
