Intro

Have you ever wanted to save browser windows over time but didn't want to clutter your desktop? bmux is a tool that lets you create browser environments to save the tabs you have open.

The name bmux is inspired by tmux, which is a terminal multiplexer tool. bmux is accordingly a browser multiplexer took.

Usage

Using bmux is very straightforward. There are three main functions: Start session, Load session, and Delete session.

• Start session lets you name a new session. Every 10 seconds, the app will read the URLs that are open in Chrome and Safari and will save them. If your computer shuts down, the session will persist.
• Load session lets you load a previously-created session. BMUX will launch a new window with the tabs saved in the session.
• Delete session lets you delete a session.
