Switching to tmux

Some time ago I was fighting my .screenrc again. I wanted to change
the status line, but it was hardly possible to read and understand
what I typed hardly half a year ago. The screen config file is not
exactly poetry.
While searching the web to find how to change the status line I ran
into tmux and I thought: "Let's give it
a try". And after the very simple compile I started configuring it.
What a surprise I was in for. This config file could be read, understood and
changed. Man, this is good.
One of the first things I changed was the default Prefix key Ctrl-B. I changed
it to Alt-A, so I can still use all the control keys with Vim and in the
terminal.
