One of things I've been meaning to ask: do people who use tmux mostly run a windows machine as their desktop?
No. It is very difficult to get tmux running on Windows. Not impossible, mind, but not as simple as e.g. 'brew install tmux'.

>But the years of using screen have ingrained in my muscle memory to use ctrl-a I still don't understand how this happened to so many people. Ctrl+a is already taken, how did anyone ever use screen without immediately changing it to something that doesn't conflict with a frequently used shell shortcut?
You map CTRL+A x2 to send CTRL+A to the shell, and it works.

Reader of that book, you finally got me to kick my screen habit with it and now I have a new tmux addiction. That said, tmux is way easier to use compared to screen. And with 1.8 and text reflow it pretty much has every feature from screen I ever wanted/needed/used.
I also love the new zoom pane that comes with 1.8 prefix . It comes very handy!

Indeed. I've been using Ctrl-\ as my Ctrl-a in screen (and occasionally tmux). Turns out that I never use that keystroke in real life.

ctrl-\ here, too. The guy introduced me to screen recommended it. His words were "if you're an emacs guy, having this mapped to ctrl-a is going to drive you crazy"
