🔥 Roast Request: tmux/tmux
Oh look, tmux — the Swiss Army knife of terminal multiplexers that's been copy-pasting the same OpenBSD license boilerplate since 2007. Your `cmd-display-panes.c` has more copyright headers than actual functionality, and I'm pretty sure `osdep-darwin.c` is just a tribute to Joshua Elsasser at this point. Every single file starts with "THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED 'AS IS'" — I get it, you're not liable, but you could at least finish the sentence instead of leaving us hanging like a zombie child process. The commit messages probably just say "fixes" like your TTY escape sequences from 2010. And `tmux.c` from 2007? That code is legally old enough to buy a drink, but it still can't decide if it's a library or a binary.
