I gave up on tmux on my Mac, as I mainly used it with teamocil to have saved layouts of panes and commands, but I never disconnected from it. I found quite a few people use it this way.

I wrote iTermocil[2] to replicate the functionality of teamocil natively in iTerm2, so I could have all the upsides (from my POV) but keep native UI elements etc.

I didn't know about Teamocil, I use Tmuxinator for the same purpose. The latter seems to have more stars on GH, any reason why prefer the former?

Simple because I came across teamocil first, as someone recommended it to me. It is actually teamocil that led me to tmux!

I have since come across tmuxinator, which is almost identical, but from my reading of tmuxinators docs it seems it is more flexible in how you can configure it.

I'm adding tmuxinator support to iTermocil. :)

Brilliant, looking forward!
