tmux software is a "terminal multiplexer". It allows a number of terminals (or windows) to be accessed and controlled from a single terminal. It is intended to be a simple, modern, BSD-licensed alternative to programs such as GNU screen.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Window bell reporting fixed.
· Show which pane is active in the list-panes output.
· Backoff reworked.
· Prevent the server from dying when switching into copy mode when already in a different mode.
· Reset running jobs when the status line is enabled or disabled.
· Simplify xterm modifier detection.
· Avoid crashing in copy mode if the screen size is too small for the indicator.
· Flags -n and -p added to switch-client.
· Use UTF-8 line drawing characters on UTF-8 terminals, thus fixing some terminals (eg putty) which disable the vt100 ACS mode switching sequences in UTF-8 mode. On terminals without ACS, use ASCII equivalents.
· New server option exit-unattached added.
· New session option destroy-unattached added.
· Fall back on normal session choice method if $TMUX exists but is invalid rather than rejecting.
· Mark repeating keys with "(repeat)" in the key list.
· When removing a pane, don't change the active pane unless the active pane is actually the one being removed.
· New command last-pane added.
· AIX fixes.
· Flag -a added to unbind-key.
· Add XAUTHORITY to update-environment.
· More info regarding window and pane flags is now shown in list-*.
· If VISUAL or EDITOR contains "vi" configure mode-keys and status-key to vi.
· New window option monitor-silence and session option visual-silence added.
· In the built-in layouts distribute the panes more evenly.
· Set the default value of main-pane-width to 80 instead of 81.
· Command-line flag -V added.
· Instead of keeping a per-client prompt history make it global.
· Fix rectangle copy to behave like emacs (the cursor is not part of the selection on the right edge but on the left it is).
· Flag -l added to switch-client.
· Retrieve environment variables from the global environment rather than getenv(3), thus allowing them to be updated during the configuration file.
· New window options other-pane-{height,width} added.
· More minor bugs fixed and manpage improvements.
