#4It is interesting how much people use tmux for working in several interactive shells at once. I tend to use tmux more for running servers in detached windows.

i just wish i could connect to remote tmux back ends and recover windows as organized locally after a network cut.

Unrelated, but it was completely impossible for me to put the video on full screen. It seems like the site did something with the scroll that prevented me from scrolling horizontally to click the full screen button.

Modern ssh supports forwarding of Unix domain sockets
On remote host:
