If anyone’s curious how to use #Blink.sh on iOS to send commands to #Tmux or #Emacs - it’s actually super convenient. On the keyboard, you tap the ^ symbol from the top bar to lock the Ctrl key, then just hit whatever key you need to complete the shortcut, like C-A. For example, detaching from Tmux is „C-A d” for me - and I can type that on my phone just as fast as on a regular keyboard.

I came across something recently that basically stressed the importance of understanding the tools you use on a daily basis to get the most out of them. It suggested that you need to get familiar with the primary sources of docs as well and not just distilled summaries that hold your hand and give you a generic solution to one particular problem your trying to solve. With that in mind, my reading list lately has been the official docs for #neomutt, #irssi, #i3wm, #opnsense, #tmux. I think this is more important than ever when it's so easy to use an #llm to search for information.

A few months ago, I decided to give up on `terminator` as my terminal because it made it hard to use other multiplexers when working remotely. Instead, I have tried to embrace the `tmux` life. It still feels a little worse to me, no different font sizes in different panes. This design constraint is impossible to overcome, but something I would like is a different colour scheme per panel, and I think that might be possible. I just haven't figured out how. #tmux
