Shpool, a Lightweight Tmux Alternative

Summary:
shpool is a service facilitating session persistence by creating named shell sessions owned by shpool to prevent session loss due to connection drops. It serves as a lighter alternative to tmux or GNU screen, focusing solely on persistent sessions without disrupting native scrollback or copy-paste functions. Users can install shpool on remote hosts for SSH sessions. Notable features include configuring keybindings, shell output restoration modes, automatic prompt prefixes for session identification, and an in-memory screen render for seamless reattaching. shpool distinguishes itself from other tools like tmux and mosh by maintaining a focus on local machine use. Additional tools like dtach and abduco share similar simplicity goals with shpool.
