.tmux.conf file to make tmux behave a bit like screen. Note: keybind to detach is ^A^D, unlike screen which is ^AD

#This configuration file binds many of the common GNU screen key bindings to
#appropriate tmux key bindings. Note that for some key bindings there is no
#tmux analogue and also that this set omits binding some commands available in
#tmux but not in screen.
