itmux is a lightweight, portable terminal multiplexer for Windows, bundling Tmux, Mintty, OpenSSH, and a minimal Cygwin environment into a standalone package. It lets you run multiple terminal sessions in one window, split panes, and securely access remote systems—all without installation or system changes.
tmux (Terminal Multiplexer) is a popular command-line tool that allows users to manage multiple terminal sessions from a single window, making it easier to work with multiple command-line tasks simultaneously. Originally created as an open-source alternative to GNU Screen, tmux has become widely used among developers, system administrators, and anyone who works extensively in the command line.
