For you Linux users... what's your pick - screen or tmux, and why?
Thanks.

Tmux user here, because of OpenBSD base and well, I set
a clonic OpenBSD base under Void Linux, with very close
config and constraints. As a plug, I have framebuffer
support for SDL(2), mplayer, mpv, fbi, fbpdf2 and fbdjvu.
For comic books, I use fbi+a script to uncompress the files,
and for IM, bitlbee+kirc work well, among links,s-nail and
getmail.
I've been weeks without X, and I won't miss it. Groff+Mom
typesets math perfectly, gnuplot is dumb easy and sc-im
and catdoc and/or antiword will do the same on docx/rtf/
xls files.
Current games require 16GB of RAM, a 20x more powerful GPU
and a 10x better CPU, so that's a no-no for me.
Slashem, interactive fiction and mednafen could keep me busy
for years.

screen are fresh in my head, I don't remember them for screen. I have a menu set to SSH into particular servers, and those shortcuts set up a terminal with screen. Screen has ZMODEM support which I do use.

whether you want to send or receive, and screen will then bring up a prompt with sz or rz, allowing you to run then on the local end. When you accept that command, the transfer proceeds.
Its convienient when you ssh to a remote server, and just want to send an adhoc file back or forth.

I use Linux, so SCP is an option, but it means starting another
shell to run the command. Zmodem means I can do it within the
shell.

Did not know about this ability within screen. Very cool. Just tried
it and it works perfectly.

I use MobaXTerm in windows which has a small built-in scp gui
where you can click/drag files to transfer them. It's not free,
but it's well worth it, especially when you have to deal with and
organize over a thousand different servers.

I'll have to take another look at MobaXTerm. We're using a combination
of Putty, WinSCP and an autologin plugin for Keepass that's nice.

Thankfully, Windows is not something I have to deal with.
I wish there was an easy way to package Putty destinations and share them, we have 10 developers and it'd be nice to package all of the usual hosts when I image systems for them.

It should be pretty easy to create a web page with links to all the servers people need to access. a browser can auto-launch PuTTY. They'd just need to make sure their key was loaded.
