Terminal [tmux]

Terminal emulator based on tmux

This terminal emulator is based on tmux. Here are some useful tips for efficient use.

Clipboard support

You can use Ctrl + Shift + V or Shift + Insert to paste into the terminal from your host machine's clipboard.

To copy text out from the terminal, simply highlight the text on the screen with the mouse.

Scroll terminal output

The easiest way to scroll up in tmux is to enter copy mode via

Ctrl + B, then [

Then you can use the arrows/mouse scroll to navigate the terminal output. You can exit copy mode by pressing q.

Exit the main session

When your Nuvolos tmux app starts, a session called main is created automatically. If you issue the exit command in this session, it'll kill it. This means the next time you try to open the app's window, you'll see a message

no sessions

Currently there is no way to restart the tmux session from such a state - if you encounter this, please restart the entire app.

Configuring tmux

You can add your own configuration at ~/.tmux.conf . The settings will be applied on the next restart of the Nuvolos application, or you can apply them to the current session via tmux source-file <file>.
