nomad-term

A terminal multiplexer based on xmonad

nomad-term is a terminal multiplexer that provides a similar interface to the tiling window manager, xmonad. It uses node-pty to fork each child process within a virtual pseudoterminal, maintaining an in-memory visual representation of program output. These "sub-terminals" are arranged as a grid and can be controlled with keyboard controls, with a very similar UX to xmonad.
