If you don't value what the website is giving you, why are you visiting it?
Curious, if I visit the site in question using lynx/links am I still in the wrong?
With an ad blocker, you selectively block the javascript you don't like but that the operators rely on to bring in revenue, while still getting the otherwise 'full' experience.
For those who are just getting started with tmux: I advise looking around others' .tmux.conf files for some sensible settings. Like Vim, Tmux ships with a lot of powerful features disabled by default. My absolute favorite has to be binding a hotkey to opening URLs in the current window [0]. See [1] for a small demo I just recorded. To get started, here's my current config: [1] [0]: https://github.com/jbnicolai/tmux/b…
I wrote a book titled "Getting started with tmux" which can be a helpful guide for those who may want to get started. http://gettingstartedwithtmux.com (Sorry if the self plug is not cool, I'm happy to delete this comment if it's not ok but I figure the community may get use out of my work)

A reasonable followup question why wouldn't one have an ad blocker installed?
That is actually a rather unreasonable question. It's like telling Firefox users to install chrome. Or that ponzu schemes are okay as long as you yourself don't have to deal with them.
Still no true color support :-(
It looks like the true color ticket on tmux was closed out: http://sourceforge.net/p/tmux/tickets/140/ I was applying this patch to 1.9 on my machine and it worked well: https://gist.github.com/JohnMorales/0579990993f6dec19e83 Haven't had a chance to see if the same diff can be applied to 2.0 yet.
It 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?

Sometimes I have to get useful tools from them....like tmux. As to why I use Adblock, I've never. Not once. Ever. Bought anything from an ad on a website. I _have_ bought books and such from the referral links on blogs (which adblock doesn't block). The reason I use adblock is because I'm not the demographic ads on websites are targeting. So websites aren't losing any revenue by me not seeing their ads.
Of course they lose revenue. your view is like any other. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_per_impression ) you won't be taking money from the company, which started the ad campaign. also: don't underestimate the effects on brand value, which will come subconsciously, if you look at ads. You will know certain companies are still active etc. This is why you don't necessarily need to be targeted. simply informed. Th…
Marketers estimate the CPI they're willing to pay based on estimated conversions per impression. Ultimately, the money comes from sales. It always comes from sales.
If I don't ever purchase anything from a website ad, my impressions are worth zero. My impressions, and impressions by those like me, will drive down the price a company is willing to pay per impression since the conversion ratio also goes down. In fact, my impressions incur a negative effect since it still incurs a cost to the advertiser.
In the best of all possible worlds, only those who will ultimately buy a product are displayed the ad. Resulting in a 100% conversion ratio. Each impression would be maximally valuable and the price paid for that impression would rise to reflect that.
Those of us who use adblock have removed ourself from the market and from the conversion ratio calculations and cost per impression to the advertiser.

Here's mine: https://github.com/olalonde/dotfiles/blob/master/tmux.conf One tweak I can't live without is having the same key bindings to seamlessly switch between tmux panes and Vim split windows. ( https://gist.github.com/mislav/5189704 ) TPM is also really useful for managing tmux plugins https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm . My prefix key is Ctrl-Space. It's very convenient to press on the keyboard, I'm surprised…
YES, THIS! Setting up directional pane navigation to work with both tmux and vim panes as first-class entities was a huge workflow boon for me as well. It was a significant change that helped kick my setup over into vim+tmux+zsh as IDE vs. merely a collection of separate parts.
It's worth noting that some relevant bits of @mislav's stuff has been packaged up nicely as a Vim plugin:
https://github.com/christoomey/vim-tmux-navigator
I also just noted that @tarruda (of neovim fame) chimed in on @mislav's gist with his own independently created version of the Vim-side of things. It looks worth comparing some of the implementation details from @tarruda's work, he's done some stuff to eliminate redraws in Vim, etc.
I wish it was possible to have screen-like bindings that don't require explicitly defining them all so that you don't have to unpress Ctrl each time. In screen you can press C-a c quickly but for that to work in tmux you have to add this: bind-key C-c new-window
Is line 2 what you are looking for? https://github.com/kusold/dotfiles/blob/master/tmux.conf#L2 I just tried it out, and `C-a c` created a new windows for me.

Because it's how 99% of websites get their funding, allowing them to survive. Why have an adblocker installed when you can avoid the sites with obnoxious adverts?

Sourceforge's downfall was not finding a better business model than advertising – which has devolved into the worst kind of spammy ads. GitHub, on the other hand, has a solid business model that doesn't involve advertising. In fact, putting ads on the site would be suicide.
Sure, but you can't say with certainty that Github's fortunes won't change X years down the line is my point.
