If I begin a process and background it in a terminal window (say ping google.com &), I can kill it using kill %1 (assuming it is job 1).
However if I open another terminal window (or tab) the backgrounded process is not listed under jobs and cannot be killed directly using kill.
When I try to open a file using vi inside tmux the whole window freezes.
How can you specify the line where you want tmux's command prompt to appear?
I want to see the windows when executing tmux commands that require window numbers (e.g. join-pane, etc) but as the command prompt is displayed on top of the window numbers, I have to cancel it, memorize the window number and type the command again.
When I run M-x kill-buffer for a buffer which was openend via gnuclient, I first get this prompt...
Kill buffer (default 'my-buffer-name'):
Then I get a second prompt/message...
Buffer 'my-buffer-name' belongs to gnuserv client(s); kill anyway? (yes or no)
How can I disable the second gnuserv/client message? (I don't need it).

I myself think this feature is redundant. In Linux Mint (MATE) to disable this confirmation window, you can hit Alt + F2 then type "mateconf-editor" to open the Configuration Editor window.
I am searching for a newuser-friendly way to kill non-responsive GUI applications under Unity.
I looked over the shoulder of a new Unity user who tried to use gscan2pdf - and gscan2pdf seems to be really broken - after not much tinkering it consumed much CPU und memory, the PC began trashing and the user needed to immediately kill the gscan2pdf GUI which was full-screen and had the focus.
Ok, I

My current workflow is:
CTRL+SHIFT+T to launch a new terminal window. That starts a new zsh terminal.
Type tmux to start tmux.
How can I have tmux load by default with a new terminal window?
I am on tmux, with mutt in an inactive window. If IMAP flags change on a message through external means, I see the visual bell and the status bar changes, drawing my attention to the e-mail client.
