I used to use screen a lot back in the day, but now use tmux exclusively
since I typically have 3 related shells open and like to see one left, two
right (top/bottom) without having to switch terminals.
The only disadvantage that tmux has compared to screen is that you need to
have a larger display to take full advanta
