I installed to be able to split my into panes, but it kills all my folder/file colours which is a huge no for me. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to preserve my terminal colours or an alternative terminal which supports multiple panes by default?

@afarian try aliassing ls to ls --color=always

@f0x It's already aliased, but your comment made me realize that tmux wasn't loading my .bashrc file, so thank you :)

@afarian that's uh, weird, wouldn't tmux just run bash which in turn loads .bashrc?

@f0x I had to add "source ~/.bashrc" into my .bash_profile.

Did this get the colors sorted, too? I know I had the same challenge until I set the term colors "properly" in my .bash_profile/.bashrc. It can be a bit inconsistent across distros too (I think).

@f0x
Yes, it did. My .bashrc was already set up but tmux wasn't using it.

My only issue now is that tmux doesn't seem to like italics (my comments are italics), but I can live with that.

@afarian
Awesome. Also maybe make sure you've got the latest this available. The last time I installed it on an Ubuntu based system the version was pretty behind. You may need to seek a PPA

@trevdev @f0x Thanks for the tip, I could be using an outdated version. I'll check :)
