Comment on Tmux, dotfiles, and the joy of text

Comments

My workflow with GNU Screen is something like the following:

  * start my computer
  * fire up a terminal
  * run `screen`
  * ssh into another machine
  * run `screen -e^vv` on the remote machine
At this point I can control my local Screen with ctrl+a and my remote Screen with ctrl+v. Is there an equivalent workflow with tmux? Is there an alternative? The podcast hints at "tmux inception" and everyone hints that they avoid tmux within tmux.
