User guide¶
Each page covers one part of Muxus, with screenshots and the reasoning behind its behaviour. The pages are independent and can be read in any order.
Connect, arrange, keep¶
~/.ssh/config is the host list. Click a host, type user@host in the search box, or
press Ctrl+K and search every category at once.

Split panes in any direction, move tabs between them, and zoom one pane to the whole window. Layout changes do not disturb a running session.

Save the layout as a workspace, save recurring tunnels, and enable session history to retain output beyond the scrollback.
