tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be created,accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached from ascreen and continue running in the background, then later reattached.
This release runs on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, macOS and Solaris.
tmux depends onlibevent 2.x, available fromthispage.
It also depends onncurses, availablefromthis page.
To build tmux, a C compiler (for example gcc or clang), make, pkg-config and asuitable yacc (yacc or bison) are needed.
Some platforms provide binary packages for tmux, although these are sometimesout of date. Examples are listed onthis page.
To build and install tmux from a release tarball, use:
./configure&& makesudo make install
tmux can use the utempter library to update utmp(5), if it is installed - runconfigure with--enable-utempter
to enable this.
