lots of people have contributed to tmux (on a quick grep through the logs, probably ~25 have made significant or multiple contributions, ~170 have made small contributions)


Hi Nicholas! That's good to hear, and definitely makes more sense given how popular and old tmux is as a project.

So I guess something just didn't translate correctly to Thomas's GitHub mirror.


i suspect you need to talk to the mosh guys for this


True enough. The session restore still stands. I know tmuxinator exists, but as a personal preference I'd prefer it in-built/native. Also to save state, which I'd expect is asking too much.


what do you mean session restore? we could restore the basic layout of sessions, windows, panes but we couldn't restore what was run in them (and it would be dangerous to try)


yes, this sucks but i have never myself been able to find a reliable case where screen reacts any better than tmux (for example, both behave similarly with yes(1))

the c0-* stuff is poor (i'm tempted to remove it) but it is not an easy problem to solve, people want tmux to be fast, except when they don't. it's also tricky remotely where ssh and the network stack are buffering too


it would probably be a relatively easy change to make this happen with key tables (which are in git), you would only need to change it so there is a way to permanently enter a key table (at the moment the key table is only entered until a command is run from it)


a couple of people have asked me about how true colour should look but none have sent code so far, it's not a very interesting feature to me so it'll need someone who cares about it to do it
