What is your most important feature of tmux?

• st

  46 8 5.7 C

  build of the suckless simple terminal with patches for alpha, font2, copyurl, openclipboard, invert, appsync, xresources, scrollback, w3m, keyboard select, boxdraw (by mrdotx)

I use st (suckless simple terminal), so my opinion, which I share with suckless, is that it's the other way around: a good terminal does not reimplement what tmux etc. already do. So, I use st + tmux, which is a fantastic combination that gives me everything I need.
