I would know this as tmux, is there a difference?

[–] huf@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

no, tmux is a newer screen. some of us havent switched cos we're too lazy i guess? i think the common wisdom is that it's better. i havent tried cos i already know enough of screen and it's fine for me

Or you can learn both and spend the rest of your life trying screen commands in tmux and vice versa.
