Not to mention iterm, IMO the best terminal emulator I have ever used.

For example, this is my current desktop.

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/dn0whcursdzfn23/desktop--2021-03-29.png?dl=0

That is:

- 2 iterm windows side by side, one filling each half of the screen

- the left one has 2 iterm panes: a big editor at the top, and a shallow 
  shell below it; those two panes are in the left of the two iterm tabs

- the editor window is vim, with 2 vim windows in it (my normal 
  arrangement because the vim focus is just a toggle instead of a 
  rotation among more windows)

- the right iterm window is _one_ pane, containing mutt in a tmux 
  session; this is the third of the 4 tabs in the right hand iterm 
  window

- because I'm replying to you, the reply compose is _also_ a tmux 
  session (which means I can detach!)

- the upper (mutt) tmux session has been split into 2 panes by my reply 
  macro - the upper has the mutt, the lower has the reply tmux session 
  (hence the double status line at the bottom - tmux inside tmux).
  Also notice the tmux session names at bottom left - these make the 
  tmux listing easy to recognise. Once this reply is sent, I'll have a 
  full height mutt index in front of me again.

- the iconic Mac menu bar is autohidden, as is the traditional Mac Dock; 
  they appear i I wave my mouse to the appropriate screen edge

- this is one of 10 virtual desktops

You may notice I have lots of pixels. That's a 16" Macbook pro laptop in 
native resolution mode.
