I want boo to be a screen replacement, not a tmux replacement. tmux gives you a whole workspace: layout, scrollback, copy mode, a status bar. screen's appeal was that it did almost none of that: sessions, a prefix key, done. boo keeps that model and swaps the emulation for libghostty so reattach actually redraws correctly.

They also compose: a boo session is just a PTY running a program, so you can run tmux inside one if you want.

Of course, it's impossible to know for sure what was LLM processed or not, but some of your posts (like this one) are getting classified that way.

Apologies, half of this indeed was. As I was iterating on the README this seemed apt, but I will refrain!
