+Discovered it not a long time ago (and now replaced with the experimental
+version of iterm2 [because of goodies](https://iterm2.com/features.html)),
+tmux deserves a lot of attention because it have lots of potential.
+
+TMUX stands for Terminal Multiplexer. _It lets you switch easily between
+several programs in one terminal, detach them (they keep running in the
+background) and reattach them to a different terminal. And do a lot more._
+Yeah, they sell themselves well.
+
+For the novices, it lets you have panels (split terminals) and windows just
+with some keybinds, detaching from them (so they keep running) and with the
+possibility of storing configurations for certain tasks, in which you need to
+open a running server and editor and some watcher at the same time, just with
+a command.
+
+For example, if you are like in the top screenshot, pressing `CTRL`+`b` `%`
+`CTRL`+`b` `"` changes the layout to this:

+
+And those numbers with a tilde at the bottom? The open windows. You can open
+more pressing `CTRL`+`b` `c`, like this:
+

+
+This are the two basic things you will use everyday. Of course, there are
+[more stuff you can do](http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-
+current/man1/tmux.1?query=tmux&sec=1), but for the basics I will list the more
+frequent keybinds here to start using it right now.
+
+| Meta key                                                     | `CTRL`+`b`        |
+| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------- |
+| Split pane horizontal                                        | `Meta`+`"`        |
+| Split pane vertical                                          | `Meta`+`%`        |
+| Swap pane                                                    | `Meta`+`o`        |
+| Kill pane                                                    | `Meta`+`x`        |
+| Toggle focus on current pane                                 | `Meta`+`z`        |
+| Show pane numbers                                            | `Meta`+`q`        |
+| Press a the number of the pane you want to focus when shown. |
+| Break pane into window                                       | `Meta`+`+`        |

+| Change pane layout                                           | `Meta`+`spacebar` |
+| Create new window                                            | `Meta`+`c`        |
+| Switch to window #x                                          | `Meta`+`<number>` |
+| Kill window                                                  | `Meta`+`&`        |
+| Next window                                                  | `Meta`+`n`        |
+| Previous window                                              | `Meta`+`p`        |
+| List windows                                                 | `Meta`+`w`        |

+| Find window                                                  | `Meta`+`f`        |
