I'm not realy sure what do you mean (though I used to use screen). But nevertheless, do you read man page (it actually great :), see `attach-session' command. For example, if you have sessions `main' and `misc' you can run in terminal $ tmux -2 -u attach-session -t misc and in another one (I assume you use some kind of WM and graphical terminal emulator like xterm/urxvt/...) $ tmux -2 -u attach-session -t main But, of course, you could any time to `switch' between session in one terminal window using `prefix'-s (see man page). About setting session and windows in tmux config file. I use a bit differnt approach (though I don't achieve the goal), you could see my conf file and tmux `scripts' here: https://github.com/vp1981/scripts/tree/master/tmux > I forgot to include the version info last time. It's 1.3-2 on Linux Mint 11 > running 2.6.38. I'm suing Archlinux x86_64, tmux (svn rev. 2588), so some conf settings might work only with tmux ver. >= 1.6. > Thanks again for the fast and helpful response. > - Eric --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- The words fly away, the writings remain. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?
