Okay.  The commands are all customizable if desired... I've always used 
screen too, but have been playing with tmux some lately.  It does have 
some VERY nice features, and is very configurable.  I especially like 
being able to have more than one "window" available (proper term might 
be "session", I'm not sure).  Also splitting it into multi panes is very 
cool.  I will probably eventually switch over to using it exclusively.

Hehe, I suppose that is probably true.  Nano for the win.  ;-)
