+ 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 a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached.
+
+ Once you feel comfortable manipulating tmux to suit your needs, I strongly
+suggest you read the man pages.
