Still no true color support :-(
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.

SourceForge itself is free software. I think that's one possible reason to use it rather than GitHub or else. The other possible is that SourceForge provide mailing list server and other service for projects. Anyway, you won't move a project around unless you have some strong motivations.
Is SourceForge really open source? Guess I must have missed that news. Regardless, Gitlab would still be a better choice in terms of UX and is also open source.

If you don't value what the website is giving you, why are you visiting it?
Why do I use screen over tmux?:
- its old. A stable version is on every distro. Trying to start a screen session is more likely to succeed on any given box than a tmux session. I see my friends wrestle with their tmux setup being more recent on one box than another and their nested sessions get screwed up. I never have any issue.
- I know it, and for my simple use it does everything perfectly. I can split panes, I can detach and come back, I can nest sessions.
- screen can attach to serial terminals.
What's the killer feature of tmux that I'm missing out on?
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?
> What is the advantage of using Sourceforge these days when github and bitbucket are free for open source? I imagine the author figures that moving is a pain. Don't forget, Sourceforge was the Github of yesteryear. I imagine in 10 years we may very well be asking the same of some old project hosted on Github.
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…
lol, my tmux keys are basically model after vim. This is the book I used to learn tmux and has vim key settings:

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.

Do you know if Gitlab allows attachments in bugs and comments? It's one of the major deficiencies in Github.
