Introduction to tmux

Presented By: Steve Stegmann

Tmux is an app which starts and controls command line terminal sessions. It is typically used to access remoter servers. It can control as many sessions as you need, probably dozens. The main benefit is that these sessions continue after you disconnect or after the connection is broken accidentally. This allows your session to be just as you left it when you log back in. Also it is great when you have a program that you need to keep running while you are gone and check back on from time to time.

We will go over the installation and use on Linux. How to manipulate sessions, windows (like tabs on a browser), and panes within a tab.
