| "tmux was supposed to provide [of] additional value" Are you sure? Could it be the author just wanted a BSD licensed screen alternative or some other reason(s)? "The keybindings are different" argument seems quite silly since you can easily change them to whatever you want. It's like when people say they will not use Lua because indices start at 1 instead of 0. tmux may be thought of as an alternative, not a replacement. Whether that's correct is an open question. Example: If I start a build world in a screen window, then detach and later I want to get a "screen shot" or "screen grab" of the output without re-attaching, how do I do that? Also, tmux's "clipboard buffer(s)", e.g., tmux loadb, tmux lsb, etc., seems a little more versatile than screen, but I'm open to suggestions from screen users how to do these things in screen. Here's what I use in tmux for the Example: cat tt
case $1 in
""|-b|-E|-S|-t)
tmux capturep $@
exec tmux showb $@
;;
*)exit
esac
