screen and tmux are unsupported; state that early. #43

Closed tobinjt closed 7 years ago

There is no documentation explaining that screen and tmux are not supported - I found that out by reading .iterm2_shell_integration.bash. Document this limitation early on.

I've added a new limitations section to the document. I didn't want to put it in the first paragraph, since it's meant to introduce users to the idea of the feature without getting into any detail. I apologize for the frustration you must have gone through. FWIW if you use tmux integration and never plain-old tmux then you can modify the shell integration script to work by removing the check for $TERM containing screen and it'll work fine.

Hi, sorry for going on an already closed issue... I only can use screen, is there any way to use it with iTerm2's shell integration? Thanks for your help.

gnachman commented 4 years ago

No, that's basically impossible without changing screen, unfortunately. Screen would need to understand the meaning of the codes and provide its own UI for using and navigating among them.

Ok, that's a pity. Thanks anyway!
