That’s pretty good Alex! tmuxis a huge help to me. My only customization is to rebind the prefix key. $ cat .tmux.conf # started 06-30-21 # By default, tmux uses Ctrl-b as prefix. Emacs, Mg, and other apps # also use C-b. To pass C-b through tmux to the app, it needs to be # typed twice as C-b C-b. I want to use C-b in the app without having # to type it twice. # https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/dv7sxo/using_tmux_terminal_emacs # Backtick ` is easier to type than C-b and is much easier to pass # through tmux to the app using `` rather than C-b C-b. # The below tmux configuration block changes the default prefix key # from Ctrl-b to backtick ` (above tab key). # https://gist.github.com/JikkuJose/7509315 # https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Tmux unbind-key C-b set-option -g prefix ` bind-key ` send-prefix
