[SGVLUG] An autologout Inquiree in TCSH?

[Sean O'Donnell via SGVLUG]

Another great feature that both tmux and screen support, is having a
default set of terminals (aka: panes) launched, as well as automatically
execute commands in those panes.

Tmux example...

Screen example...

I often use tmux on my workstation, which has panes to multiple servers,
which I run screen on the servers, inside of my main/workstation tmux
session. The best of both worlds.
