Installed using the curl-to-bash on Sequoia and I’m getting “error: ReadOnlyFileSystem” on ‘boo new’. Can’t see any open issues on gh and nothing in the readme. Definitely interested in something like this - love ghostty and I’ve been finding Zellij a bit crashy recently (plus I don’t really need tabs).

this is incorrect. you can have multiple clients using screen -x instead of screen -a
I didn't say you couldn't have multiple clients, I said clients and servers are the same process forked. Or did someone add distinct client/server support to screen finally? I know theres a lot of stuff bolted onto screen over the years but I wasn't aware they dropped forked servers for the tmux model...
Without -x though it works as originally described.
Edit: gnu screen 1.0 was originally released in 1987. The -x flag was released in screen 3.0 in the 90s. TIL

Apologies, half of this indeed was. As I was iterating on the README this seemed apt, but I will refrain!
This no good ;)
Old busted screen can do multiple windows per session.
Been using zmx for a few months and love it: https://github.com/neurosnap/zmx/ Very similar, based on libghostty
I currently use tmux. Not because I need to multiplex shells in a remote server, but because I like to have my sessions persisted in my local machine. Even between reboots (technically not the same session, but the same tabs and splits I had). I currently have that with tmux and a tmux plugin that restores my sessions. But I think that tmux is overkill for this. And if I'm in a tmux session, then I can't use my terminal emulator's native tabs and splits. Does anyone have a recommendation of how to handle only terminal sessions on Linux?
