This project is a terminal multiplexer that enables multiple terminal sessions to run simultaneously within a single window or a detached background process. By decoupling the client interface from a persistent server process, it allows users to maintain long-running command-line tasks that continue to execute even after disconnecting from a remote host.
The system functions as a terminal window manager and process controller, providing a text-based interface to organize multiple shell processes into custom tiled layouts. It distinguishes itself through a programmable command-line interface that supports extensive scripting and configuration, allowing for the automation of complex shell interactions and the management of persistent sessions across different network connections.
Beyond its core session management, the project provides a comprehensive suite of tools for controlling terminal windows, panes, and buffers. It utilizes a command-pattern execution engine to process user actions and an asynchronous event loop to coordinate real-time updates across active sessions, ensuring consistent rendering through terminal escape sequence translation.
