--TXv8ADjWKuT9E31y Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi all, At the DevSummit in Cambridge we briefly discussed including tmux(1) in the base system. We recently had window(1) there, but unfortunately window(1) was a very limited tool, compared to tools like screen(1) and tmux(1). Why tmux(1) and not screen(1)? Well, simple. The first has a better license and very active maintenance. I was talking with the author on IRC the other day and it seemed like I spoke with him at a fortunate moment, because he was just about to release version 1.0. I think it would be nice to import this into HEAD, which means FreeBSD 9.0 (maybe 8.1?) will include it by default. How to test tmux in base: - Download this tarball and extract it to contrib/tmux: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tmux/tmux-1.0.tar.gz - Apply the following patch: http://80386.nl/pub/tmux.diff Comments? --=20 Ed Schouten <ed@80386.nl> WWW: http://80386.nl/ --TXv8ADjWKuT9E31y Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkq3YwEACgkQ52SDGA2eCwVK4wCfcf/E/9oM8ESCvdTDTXuyZUJC kfIAnikKgoekjFxPE+xC2oALIjfaAihv =L7Zf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --TXv8ADjWKuT9E31y--
