<h1>screen and tmux</h1>
|
||
|
|
<p>A comparison of the features (or more-so just a table of notes for accessing some of those features) for <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/" target="_blank">GNU screen</a> and BSD-licensed <a href="https://tmux.github.io/" target="_blank">tmux</a>.</p>

<td colspan="3">

|
|
<p>The formatting here is simple enough to understand (I would hope). ^ means ctrl+, so ^x is ctrl+x. M- means meta (generally left-alt or escape)+, so M-x is left-alt+x</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>It should be noted that this is no where near a full feature-set of either group. This - being a cheat-sheet - is just to point out the most very basic features to get you on the road.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Trust the developers and manpage writers more than me. This document is originally from 2009 when tmux was still new - since then both of these programs have had many updates and features added (not all of which have been dutifully noted here).</p>
