Hi Corinna

Sorry for the late response, I was on vacation and then punished by a
nasty cold...

Yes, I am willing to do so. I read this document, but will probably
need to revisit it again from time to time ;-)

I now also built using Cygwin64. However, in order to do so, I had to
change the dependency on ARCH_x86_64 to libncursesw-devel. Otherwise I
still depend on libncurses-devel. Is this the correct procedure? I was
a bit confused that there is no libncurses-devel package on Cygwin64.

In the meantime version 1.9a was released, so I updated the package.
It being an official release, I removed the test version tag from the
setup.hint.

ARCH_i686:

category: Utils
requires: libevent2.0_5 libncurses10
sdesc: "Terminal multiplexer"
ldesc: "tmux enables a number of terminals (or windows) to be accessed and
controlled from a single terminal like screen. tmux runs as a server-client
system. A server is created automatically when necessary and holds a number of
sessions, each of which may have a number of windows linked to it. Any number
of clients may connect to a session, or the server may be controlled by issuing
commands with tmux. Communication takes place through a socket, by default
placed in /tmp. Moreover tmux provides a consistent and well-documented command
interface, with the same syntax whether used interactively, as a key binding,
or from the shell. It offers a choice of vim or Emacs key layouts."

PS: @Balaji Thanks for pointing me to the 1.9a version. It was
released while I was struggling with the mailing list to get my mails
through, that's why I hadn't noticed it.
