hi

I would like to my first invocation of a 'Gnome terminal' on Linux
mint  to automatically launch tmux but not for any subsequent consoles
.


My more generic question is how can consoles share information?


Best regards

I'm not sure I completely understand what you are trying to do. But it 
sounds like you want to detect if tmux is already running. I'd run a 
simple script when the terminal starts up using this feature:

The script will detect if the tmux process is running by grepping the output of the 'ps' command and launch tmux if it's not already running.
