I've shyed away from using tmux and Vim. For some reason, when I use tmux and Vim, if I 'copy' a snippet of text (using my mouse/cursor higlight -> right-click -> copy) it treats all of the empty space a actual "space" characters when I 'paste'. Why does it do this?

Because that's how you create a vertical split. Maybe it could choose not to do that when there is no pane to the right of the current pane. But maybe the heuristics on that are hard.

I love TMux and Vim and I miss it when off my machine. Has anyone used TMux in the Creator's Edition of Windows 10? It is AWESOME. I need to get CMUS and Ranger working and I will be a happy camper.

I used it for a while but then I realized that ConEmu also supports split panes, and then i can just scroll/select the buffers by mouse instead of ctrl+b, [.

ConEmu really is an amazing piece of work. Quirky to configure (but hey, so it tmux), but truly amazing still :-)

If you like ConEmu try out cmdr http://cmder.net

> Cmder is a software package created out of pure frustration over the absence of nice console emulators on Windows. It is based on amazing software, and spiced up with the Monokai color scheme and a custom prompt layout, looking sexy from the start.
