I got some odd reason why i need tmux: I can't use most "modern" terminal emulators because their input latency is awful and playing RTS games for a decade made me too sensitive to input latency. So i'm using xterm which provides no tabbing but with tmux.


I get this one.

Have you tried Konsole? I've read it's actually one of the fastest, probably not more than xterm though and you'd need to be willing to use KDE software.


I just did, while the input latency is not too bad, i dislike the KDE dependencies and the resource usage.


Have you trier new gen terminal that are GPU accelerated like alacrity or westerm ?

checkout kitty. its FAST. I used to use iterm and once I tried kitty for a day, iterm felt infuriatingly slow.


If you have GPU support. I don't and it feels sluggier than konsole.

Edit: Also kitty upstream does not offer a manpage.


Yes, it does offer a manpage.


Urxvt?


Kitty is pretty wonderful. It also has most of the features that tmux provides (and a bunch more)
