tmux session management

In tmux, you can create a new session using the tmux command followed by the new-session command. Here's the basic syntax:

bash
tmux new-session -s session_name

Replace session_name with the desired name for your new session. If you don't specify a name, tmux will assign a default name.

Here are a few examples:

  1. To create a new session named "mysession":

    bash
  • tmux new-session -s mysession
  • To create a new session without specifying a name:

    bash
    1. tmux new-session

    After running the new-session command, you will be switched to the new session. You can then use tmux commands to manage and navigate between sessions.

    Here are some useful tmux session management commands:

    • Switching between sessions:

      • Switch to the last session: tmux switch-client -n
      • Switch to a specific session by name: tmux switch-client -t session_name
    • Listing sessions:

      • List existing sessions: tmux list-sessions or tmux ls
    • Detaching from a session:

      • Detach from the current session (leave it running in the background): tmux detach-client
    • Attaching to a session:

      • Attach to the last session: tmux attach
      • Attach to a specific session by name: tmux attach -t session_name
    • Killing a session:

      • Kill a session: tmux kill-session -t session_name

    Remember that you can customize the key bindings and create scripts to simplify these commands based on your preferences. To customize tmux behavior, you can add configurations to your ~/.tmux.conf file.

    Keep in mind that the "best" framework or library depends on your specific requirements, such as the framework you are using (React, Angular, Vue, etc.) and the features you need. Additionally, the landscape may have evolved, and new libraries may have been introduced since my last update. Always check the latest documentation and community feedback to make an informed decision.

    midnight commander shortcuts cheatsheet

     In the shortcuts below, "C" stands for CTRL and "A" stands for "ALT". This is a convention

    used in the Midnight Commander documentation and was kept here.
    
    You can also use "ESC" instead of "ALT", which is useful on Macbooks.
