tmux does not work as usual

[atari]

tmux does not work as usual - opening tmux results in nothing?

There's no pty right now - I believe this is listed as a TODO, though.

MS know about that, they are working to fix this.

how can you claim you have provide a subsystem for linux when you even cant support pty? its a basic requirement

[gdude2002]

@yunfan They don't claim to have provided one yet, this is still in very early alpha. Or don't you understand the nature of insider builds?

Yes, PTY is not yet fully implemented and we are aware of this limitation. We will be tracking\prioritizing which features to light up next by looking at the feedback provided at the wpdev portal. We appreciate your feedback and please make sure to provide it through the wpdev portal as well. Looks like there is already a post tracking this which you can up vote (or add a new one):

Pulling this one back up. TMUX is now functional in build 14361.

xterm is also working. That's awesome; you guys are being too modest!
