I run ./mis as a daemon, never use the "server" part, all the logs show what I 
need if I need to look in them. I have ./mis starting as daemon on boot.

In my crontab I have this;

@reboot /mystic/start.sh

.... and the contents of that script are;

#!/bin/bash

sem="/mystic/semaphore"
pid=$(ps aux | grep "./mis root" | grep -v grep | awk -F " " '{ print $2 }')

cd /mystic/

if [ -f $sem/mis.bsy ]; then
  if [[ "$pid" -lt 1 ]]; then
    # remove *.bsy if mis really isn't running and then start it.
    rm $sem/*.bsy
    ./mis root /mystic/ daemon
  else
    # do nothing as it's already running
    echo "Server already running."
  fi
else
  echo "Server not running, starting it now."
  ./mis root /mystic/ daemon
fi

I use screen mostly, tmux and screen are "similar" for what I use them for, I 
think tmux is more complex, but not much more difficult to use, they just are 
different applications to do the same job, while one does more than the other I 


















































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































think.

I like tmux in that I can create a layout of tiles, think a tiling window 
manager but tmux is doing it instead of my twm.
