Re: Tmux 2.0 released
#2I recently discovered Tmux after years of using GNU Screen. I love it. It feels much easier to use and more intuitive, easier to script. Also integration with terminal emulators such as iTerm2 on OS X or Byobu on Linux is fantastic. Tmux earned a place in my list of favorite daily used tools.

#3Why it's 2.0? I don't see any really significant changes, or maybe I missed smth.
Re: Tmux 2.0 released
#4The main thing that I wish I could have in tmux is the ability to disable other sessions attached to the current terminal without outright detaching them. I intend to go back to that other machine at some point, I just don't want its tiny screen making my current session tiny for no reason.
Maybe this is actually possible already and I just haven't found it?

Maybe because Tmux 2.0 has some breaking changes??

#6It makes me sad to see a respectable piece of open source software hosted on this site with its intrusive advertising practices such as ads with fake "install" buttons on the download page.
What is the advantage of using Sourceforge these days when github and bitbucket are free for open source?

The biggest advantage of tmux over screen is its ability to automatically resize based on the smaller terminal connected to it. I know there are a lot other advantages, but this in itself was a game changer for me.

Say you want to attach to session 0 (use `tmux list-sessions` to see available sessions).
A trick I've found is not attaching to that session, but starting a new session sharing all underlying windows. The model in tmux is [session]->[windows]->[panes], but something I did not realize until recently is that [session] can be multiple.
So rather than `tmux attach -t 0` use `tmux new-session -t 0`, allowing you to interact with the same windows without disturbing the other session.

All I see after clicking download is a direct link to the file, which is in fact just a .tar.gz.

Not having to move is a major plus.
