Terminals

Tmux

Tmux is a tool such as screen. It allows you to set up a tty and de-attach, re-attach to it.

# Create a tty
$ tmux
 
# CTRL+b + d to detach
 
# List sessions
$ tmux list-sessions
0: 1 windows (created Mon Mar  7 09:22:28 2022)
 
# Re-attach to session
$ tmux attach [-t session_id]

Terminator

• Fix double characters in Ubuntu 22 on broadcast This seems to be related to ibus.

# https://github.com/gnome-terminator/terminator/issues/596
ibus restart

Kitty

Kitty is a very cool terminal, a replacement for terminator that I used before. A cool font to use is Victor Mono

Kitty doesn’t work properly with SSH due to some terminal stuff. You can use kitten to fix that.

kitten ssh my-server

You can also just create an alias for this.

# In your ~/.zshrc file
alias s="kitten ssh"

Restart your terminal and open multiple tabs. You can now broadcast commands by using the F1 key.
