I find the tmux command line far more regular and flexible. Screen's 
option set is ... weird and complex and has clearly just grown over 
time. Tmux is far better there.

It also has more features: panes within windows, etc. I rarely use that 
(I use panes in my terminal emulator heavily though), although my mutt 
composition mode uses a tmux pane for the composition so I still have 
access to the main index above it.
