Hey, HN! With all recent agentic workflows being primarily terminal- and tmux-based, I wanted to share a little project I created about decade ago. I've continued to use this as my primary terminal "window manager" and wanted to share in case others might find it useful. I would love to hear about other's terminal-based workflows and any other tools you may use with similar functionality.

Copying text to clipboard when working on a remote machine via SSH can be tricky. While you can usually highlight text with your mouse to copy it to the primary selection clipboard (and paste with middle-click), this approach has limitations.

Author here. RMUX started from a frustration: I've used tmux for years and got tired of scraping output with grep and sleeps to automate anything. So I rebuilt the multiplexer from scratch in Rust, with a programmable layer on top. Two surfaces: a tmux-compatible CLI (~90 commands, your keybindings just work), and a typed async Rust SDK on the same daemon — stable pane IDs, structured snapshots, locator-style waits. The idea is Playwright-style automation, but for terminals. Native on Linux, macOS, Windows (real ConPTY, no WSL). Demos and docs at rmux.io. Happy to answer questions about the…

Hey HN, Small OSS project that i created for myself and want to share with the community. It's a declarative, scriptable, terminal-based IDE focussed on agentic engineering. That's a lot of jargon, but essentially its a multi-agent IDE that you start in your terminal. Why is that relevant? Thanks to tmux and SSH, it means that you have a really simple and efficient way to create your own always-on coding setup. Boot into your IDE through ssh, give a prompt to claude and close off your machine. In tmux-ide claude will keep working. The tool is intentionally really lightweight, because I think…

Most neovim users will be familiar with flash.nvim, which amongst other things, allows you to quickly jump to a word in your visible buffer. It’s a great tool for developers who want to quickly navigate their codebase. I was looking for something similar, but for tmux. I wanted to be able to search visible words in the current tmux pane, then copy that word to the system clipboard by pressing the associated label key. I built https://github.com/Kristijan/flash-copy.tmux, with the aim to bring that functionality to tmux. Here’s a bit of a write up…

While speccing out this spreadsheet tool, I realized that I never had to think about the keybindings. It all just came naturally from Vim. Normal/insert/visual modes, hjkl navigation, dd/yy/p, :w, :q. The usual muscle memory works. It supports CSV/TSV import and export, and a native .cell format that preserves formulas. The formula engine handles SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, MAX, and IF with range references. The codebase is a Cargo workspace: a pure cell-sheet-core library (no TUI dependency) and a cell-sheet-tui crate on top of ratatui. Early days, but it's usable. To…

PrettyMux▲73I built PrettyMux as a native Linux terminal workspace for multitask workflows and keeping track of my agents. It’s a GTK4 app built on Ghostty/libghostty, with split panes, workspaces, vertical tabs, notifications, project-aware tabs (shows favicons/logo automatically), and an in-app browser so terminals and docs/tools can live side by side. I started it because I wanted something tmux-like for modern GUI workflows on Linux, but native and not Electron, there is cmux but only available on macos (prettymux compiles on windows and macos too but not tested for now there) It’s…

A couple of years ago, I written an intro to tmux (https://tmux.github.io/) inside tmuxp's (https://github.com/tony/tmuxp) documentation called The Tao of tmux (https://tmuxp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/about_tmux.html). I'm in the process of turning it into a feature book. I am aiming for a December 23rd, 2016 release and am plugging away full time. I make it available to read on the web for free at https://leanpub.com/the-tao-of-tmux/read. The GitHub is at…

You can use features of tmux to implement a Turing-complete instruction set, allowing you to compile code that runs in tmux by moving windows. I feel like I really have to emphasise this: I’m not running a command-line program in tmux, or using tmux to launch a program. I can get tmux to run real co
