Automatic Tmux start

Tmux is automatically started after the computer/server is turned on.

OS X

To enable this feature:

put set -g @continuum-boot 'on' in tmux.conf
reload tmux config with this shell command: $ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

Next time the computer is started:

Terminal.app window will open and resize to maximum size
tmux command will be executed in the terminal window
if "auto restore" feature is enabled, tmux will start restoring previous env

Config options:

set -g @continuum-boot-options 'fullscreen' - terminal window will go fullscreen
set -g @continuum-boot-options 'iterm' - start iTerm instead of Terminal.app
set -g @continuum-boot-options 'iterm,fullscreen' - start iTerm in fullscreen

Linux

Help with this would be greatly appreciated. Please get in touch.

Systemd

this will only start the tmux server, it will not start any terminal emulator

To enable automatic start with systemd:

Put set -g @continuum-boot 'on' in tmux.conf
reload tmux config with this shell command: $ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf
see systemd for more details about how this is implemented
