Yes, I didn't necessarily mean just moving tmux into screen.scm. I just
meant that they clearly belong next to each other, wherever that is.

There's no tests to run. I added a comment on it.

Okay, done. (btw a bunch of packages in suckless.scm do it that way,
which is where I copied the arguments field from)

I wrapped those commands in texinfo, but I don't think that reptyr
should be capitalized even at the beginning of a sentence. Upstream
always seems to keep it lower case, and other package descriptions do it
this way too (like dtach).

I included the updated patch as an attachment. Thanks for the feedback,
