The window program seems to date back to 4.3BSD, but I've never cared much for it. tmux hopefully will be more useful. The feature set of tmux looks much closer to GNU screen but under a BSD style license. Who knows, maybe we can stop installing screen on our OpenBSD boxes ;-). I've always found window somewhat awkward to use compared to a shell with job-control.



(crud, this reminds me my OpenBSD box is still chugging along on 4.4 !)
