tmux lets you switch between windows (listed in the green bar at the bottom) here are several useful commands:

  • Starts a new tmux: tmux (at the command line)
  • Connect to an existing tmux: tmux attach (at the command line)
  • Create a new window: Ctrl-b c (from within tmux)
  • Switch to window N: Ctrl-b N (from within tmux)
  • Disconnect from tmux: Ctrl-b d (from within tmux)
  • To shut down tmux close terminal without disconnecting. Reattach and repeat to make sure every tmux window is closed.


More elaborate cheat-sheets like this one (pdf) are available elsewhere.
