OT: Tmux/Screen are a little bit RSI inducing to me, to be used effectively. Any tips?

Remap caps lock to be a ctrl key, then preferably remap your prefix key to a. Caps+a is way easier to type.

For tmux, I assign the bind-key to backtick (`) and last-window to TAB. Then do most of my work in window #1. On a US keyboard, I find it pretty easy to move between windows with `1, `2, `TAB, etc.

This is also what I do.

I really like the status bar with the arrow-breadcrumbs look. I will definitely be incorporating that into my config.

If others are looking for a great config to start out with definitely check out Brian P. Hogan's tmux: Productive Mouse-Free Development [1]. It is a great quick intro to tmux that demos and steps through the creation of a great tmux.conf
