So the main contenders of this match are
GNU screen and Tmux?
Which should be learned rather than the other and for what reasons?
>>
>>51658105
Go with Tmux since it'll be the thing to replace screen.
>>
want to say tmux but I've literally never used screen (or known anyone who has)
>>
Screen is deprecated shit.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wd0/configs/master/tmux/.tmux.conf

Save in your home folder.

$ tmux
^ is control
^j is the prefix for a tmux command
^j-c make a new window
^j n switch between windows
^j | split a window into panes
^j j jump between panes
^j ^j also jump between panes
^j x close shit
^j , rename a window
^j d detach from tmux session
$ tmux attach # reconnect to detached tmux session

You can close a terminal without detaching and tmux won't die. It lives in the background waiting to be attached to.

/end tutorial.

<3 Crawl, that game is great
>>
>>51658105

I've never understood the need for them desu senpai.
Why not just pop another xterm?
>>
>>51659131
For detached sessions like when you're running a seed box with rtorrent and other ncurses programs
>>
what the hell is that i like that screen
>>
>>51659149

Hmm ok, never done that, so I'll take your word for it friend.

>>51659164
If you're talking about the upper right portion I'm pretty sure that's dwarf fortress.
>>
>>51659192
The upper LEFT portion is an older version of Dungeon Crawl

Oh a rouge like thanks man for the clarification, learning curve high for this one?
>>
>>51659272
It's really challenging but the wiki for the game is very comprehensive. I haven't come anywhere close to beating it yet, but I still have fun
