Why is Tmux better than neovim's built-in terminal?

• vim-tmux-navigator

  Seamless navigation between tmux panes and vim splits

To simplify the commands to navigate between windows, you can use https://github.com/christoomey/vim-tmux-navigator - then you can seamlessly move between terminals and neovim panes with the same shortcut. Moving windows is still different.

  Neovim plugin for locking a buffer to a window

I use stickybuf for preventing opening files in a terminal buffer, but I'll have a look on unception.

  extrakto for tmux - quickly select, copy/insert/complete text without a mouse

For me, tmux is the terminal/workspace manager, nvim is the editor. If I want to work on a different repo/workspace, I open a new tmux window and open a new nvim in that window. If I need to do stuff on the terminal, opening a new tmux pane feels more natural than opening a new nvim split with a terminal. Also this tmux plugin is great: https://github.com/laktak/extrakto

• pueue

  :stars: Manage your shell commands.

For the command that takes a long time to complete, I always use pueue to run. This thing let you run multiple commands in order and can schedule the execution later which is really helpful to my workflow.

• tmux-resurrect

  38 10,677 0.0 Shell

  Persists tmux environment across system restarts.

  

Sure. Once you log in to the remote Linux machine, just run `tmux` and do your job. When you connect to the remote Linux machine next time, run `tmux attach`, and you will be right where you left off. The sessions will be persisted until you restart the Linux machine (well, or kill the tmux server). If you'd like even more persistence after machine restart, you can also try https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-resurrect
