Bug#519339: ITP: tmux -- an alternative to screen, licensed under 3-BSD

2009-03-11 Thread Karl Ferdinand Ebert
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Karl Ferdinand Ebert 

* Package name: tmux
  Version : 0.7
  Upstream Author : Nicholas Marriott 
* URL : http://sf.net/projects/tmux
* License : BSD
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : an alternative to screen, licensed under 3-BSD

tmux enables a number of terminals (or windows) to be accessed and
 controlled from a single terminal. tmux runs as a server-client system.
 A server is created automatically when necessary and holds a number of
 sessions, each of which may have a number of windows linked to it.
 Any number of clients may connect to a session, or the server may be
 controlled by issuing commands with tmux. Communication takes place
 through a socket, by default placed in /tmp.

-- System Information:
Debian Release: 5.0
  APT prefers stable
  APT policy: (500, 'stable')
Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)

The short description had been "terminal multiplexer" from the first packaging 
attempts but I did not know it had to be the line in the bug report. The long 
description is extended with details from the FAQ:

* How is tmux different from GNU screen? What else does it offer?

tmux offers several advantages over screen:

- a clearly-defined client-server model: windows are independent entities 
which
  may be attached simultaneously to multiple sessions and viewed from multiple
  clients (terminals), as well as moved freely between sessions within the 
same
  tmux server;
- a consistent, well-documented command interface, with the same syntax
  whether used interactively, as a key binding, or from the shell;
- easily scriptable from the shell;
- multiple paste buffers;
- choice of vim or emacs key layouts;
- an option to limit the window size;
- a more usable status line syntax, with the ability to display the first line
  of output of a specific command;
- a cleaner, modern, easily extended, BSD-licensed codebase.

From Williams' email:
> What does this have over screen, other than being BSD licensed?

answered above.
> The design of tmux seems less secure, too.

In which way is it less secure? 
My first contact with this package was on a OpenBSD mallinglist, as I followed 
those discussions some developers where involved.
(I do not mean it is more secure by that but I appreciate their code in 
general)


Regards,


Ferdinand

corrected. I was using linitian from stable, therefore I did not recognized
