Just make it:  pgrep -u $USER tmux

If it's not too far off topic, what's the advantage of tmux over just a whole bunch of xterms?

One huge advantage is the ability to switch very quickly between different terminals. This is great when you have a lot of vim terminals open when you are doing development work. You can also group the different terminals into windows and the windows into sessions, offering an insane amount of organization. Organizing let's say 50 different shells is a breeze.

Cool.  I rarely go past five, but maybe tmux is the way to go.
