mosh <server> -- tmux a

# connect to server enable scroll back via tmux (and specify session name)
mosh <server> -- tmux new -s mosh-session-$HOSTNAME

# if running fish and you dont have $HOSTNAME set, then this will work
mosh <server> -- tmux new -s mosh-session-(hostname)

# tmux additional options (connect and reconnect) if you can not be bothered doing that manual should mosh fallover.
# for me personally, I am not worried about reconnecting as much as I am keen on scroll back history. The ability 
# to reconnect manually if needed is just an added bonus or a security issue depending on your use case / persective. 
# But if you find this and are looking for running tmux with or statments or perhaps some other more complex syntax,
# then this link (below) will provide all the grusome details of starting a specific shell and running a command :

# you can also go away from mosh and use ET (great if you are not addicted to the predictive features of mosh)
