Make screen vs. tmux configurable at runtime #98

Open sur5r opened 9 years ago

Hi,

I was wondering wether you would be open to a patch that make the choice of screen vs. tmux configurable in apt-dater.xml instead of compile time.

I just wanted to ask beforehand just in case there's a reason not to do that.

Cheers, sur5r

Hi,

I will consider to merge such a patch. tmux should be default since this is IMHO the only way to support multi-user environments.

TIA, Thomas

As I'm currently not using apt-dater anymore I just wanted to note that I will not have the time to implement this in the foreseeable future. Just in case anyone else wants to give it a shot...

Just to clarify, the ttmux (tmux and screen) is defined at compile time and cannot be changed once compiled, so binary packages supplied by distros enforce which muxer to use ?

Yes it does and Debian uses tmux since it is the default and screen lacks features for multi-user setups. @henti
