What is the difference between tmux-resurrect and tmux-continiuum? #472

I find this line in the readme confusing: Automatic restoring and continuous saving of tmux env is also possible with tmux-continuum plugin. Does this mean that it is preferred to use tmux-continuum for that use case?

See tmux-resurrect saves the terminal session when asked to (by prefix + Ctrl + s) or before closing the terminal, whereas tmux-continiuum saves terminal session continuously in some interval without ever pressing the shortcut.

I figured. I will send a PR to update the readme to something along the lines what you said.
