I got started with screen, but nowadays I use tmux more often. The main reason
is that it is in OpenBSD's base install, so I just got used to it. It is also
licensed under a BSD-like license, if you care about such things. In addition,
its keyboard commands are a bit easier for my fingers.

In the end of the day it is just another Vim vs Emacs war.

Okay. The commands are all customizable if desired... I've always used
screen too, but have been playing with tmux some lately. It does have
some VERY nice features, and is very configurable. I especially like
being able to have more than one "window" available (proper term might
be "session", I'm not sure). Also splitting it into multi panes is very
cool. I will probably eventually switch over to using it exclusively.

Hehe, I suppose that is probably true. Nano for the win. ;-)

I'm with you on this.

I've been using screen for a loooong time, but discovered tmuxinator for the MAC, with some themes, which provides a nice sexy screen.

So I'm in the process of switching over to tmux and having to learn the tmux way of things - all because of a sexy screen!

I'm probably using 2% of it right now, and its on my list to understand it more, but thats enough for me to be dangerous now.

Cosmetic appeal is very important to most people. I don't use a Mac,
but I bet it looks good!

I'm in the same place. I really like it and am going to get better at
using it, at least the basics. The multi-pane stuff (split windows) is
especially attractive to me.

Makes me want to dig up my old geek code block and update it to add a screen
multiplexer listing.
