Jump into Tmux + Terminal

之前为了让终端炫酷好用，配置了 Terminator + Oh My ZSH + autosuggestions + highlighting + Agnoster theme + powerline fonts + solarized colors，可是终端的反应速度受到了影响，移植性也不高，最主要的是对于我来说，Terminator 不够 Terminal + Tmux 酷，所以最近决定切回 Terminal + Tmux 。

Terminal 是 Ubuntu 自带的终端，就不做介绍了。今天主要聊聊Tmux 的基本用法，做一个备忘录。 Tmux 除了分屏功能外，还有一个功能我很喜欢，即 persistent，也就是运行在 Tmux 中的程序在其断开前会一直保持运行状态。譬如：远程登录服务器，通过 Tmux 运行程序，即使本地登录客户端断开，程序也会保持运行，除非我们在服务器端退出 Tmux 或者重启服务器。

Tmux 中的所有命令在执行前都需要一个前缀， 默认为 C-b。

C-b 表示 Ctrl + b，如下雷同，C 即代表 Ctrl 建。

Start

tmux
# or
tmux new -s session_name

Stop

# Kill server and all sessions
tmux kill-server
pkill -f tmux

tmux kill-session -a # Close all other sessions

tmux kill-session -t <name> # Kill the specific session

Manual

Actually, the following command is all we need to know at the first time:

man tmux
