use iTerm2. (if you're on a Mac) It's free https://iterm2.com/ As someone who lives in terminals, iTerm2 may be the Killer App for Macbooks. You see, it has Tmux Integration [1], which makes tmux windows and panes become native tabs and panes in iTerm, which means I don't need to use weird chords to manipulate tmux, but most importantly, most UX-ily, it has native scrollback. No need to escape into a weird secondary mode just to do the most basic thing that all graphical terminals are good for. If you work with terminals on remote machines, you owe yourself to use tmux. If your client is a Mac(book), you owe yourself to use iTerm2. The weird thing is that iTerm2 is the only Terminal Emulator to leverage Tmux's Control Channel mode, for the integration. For all the breadth of copycat terminal emulators on Linux, none of them perform this one killer feature. |
