SSH, but opening multiple terminator tabs, each having to ssh, and either each having to have their own tmux session making scrollback useless, or being suseptable to ssh disconnection problems (losing scrollback/etc) is terrible. A local UI is much, much nicer to use than tmux via. So I don't have to do CTRL-B PgUp to scroll up my tmux buffer, and lack the controls I have from terminator - and if I use shift-PgUp it will work as expected, as opposed to being useless when using a tmux session.īut the long and short of it is, integrate with this 'control mode' of tmux so that the windowing and scrollback are unified between tmux and terminator and native terminator UI and key bindings just do their job, and affect the tmux session appropriately (and the terminator window can obtain it's state/scrollback when attaching to tmux). So when I use my mouse wheel to scroll, or shift-pgup/down, it shows the scroll back just like it does now - however that information comes from tmux (and is distinct per pane/split). terminator, or native tmux).įinally, and most importantly, unification of the scrollback buffers. The same goes for creating a new tab should be identical to creating a new pane in tmux, so that if I create 3 new tabs, and then detached tmux, re-attaching to tmux I would still have 3 new tabs (whether I connect via. So if I use terminator to split screen, and it's "talking" to tmux, then that split screen is sent to tmux (so if I detached and re-attached, the same split screen would be there), and controlled locally (so clicking between splits switches windows). What I am asking for, is that things like the scrollback buffer and windowing that tmux has be 'exported' to the local terminal. ssh, and move about - being able to re-attach to your tmux window is essential - and being able to have the terminal integrate properly while doing so is huge for productivity.
This is not as big a deal when only working locally, but when you do a lot of work via. tmux managing panes by itself in one big window) is just painful.

Since leaving Mac and returning to Linux, I find myself sorely missing this functionality - especially managing scrollbacks and mouse copy/paste behavior with 'raw' tmux (ie. This is an amazing feature, and is unparalleled by any other terminal app I've seen. Which means one could attach to that session with a standard tmux session and it is identical.
triple-click selecting a whole line only does so within that pane), and essentially does all pane and scrollback management in iterm2 - but still being a tmux window.
Iterm switch between panes full#
you split screen, rather than rendering by tmux inside the terminal window, iterm2 itself renders it as a split screen (or tabs, etc), with full scroll back support, proper mouse copy/paste functionality (ie. Meaning that iTerm 2 will communicate directly with the tmux server, and then enable things like native scollback and windowing that is directed by tmux. ITerm 2 (only for mac) has full tmux integration.
