Issue

Hi

Was looking to see about a tmux integration for hyper like in recent versions of iterm2

with the tmux -CC command

video of it in action:

Then you also get all of tmux's plugins (i.e. for like session saving) and stuff for free too.

Super down to help both research and implementation.

Just seeing what other interest or information I can get by opening an issue

Hey, check out #1912 for some more details on how tmux -cc works.

Hey all. I decided to write a replacement for tmux -CC called "Headless Terminal Multiplexer" (HTM). Here are the reasons why I'm writing something new:

• tmux -CC is tied to iTerm, which is itself tied to OS/X. I am adding support for HTM in hyper.js, which is a terminal emulator that runs in most desktop OSes. One day we will be able to use laptops with a hardware escape key again.
• HTM is an open spec that can be adopted by many terminal emulators. Wez Furlong, author of Wezterm, has helped write the API.
• Some minor design changes, such as having HTM own a single window.

I've been making steady progress and should have a Hyper.js PR soon. Here's a link to a video showing HTM working with Hyper.js: https://youtu.be/Ea6Y08tP-RI

I decided to make a new issue since HTM is somewhat off topic from the OP. https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/2978
