I really don't want this kind of single-purpose stuff in tmux. Why not just use
the existing xmodem tools?
My cu in OpenBSD does xmodem directly :-). Or there are loads of other things.

Subject: Is there a command to (help) run xmodem
Hello,
I understand that the tmux philosophy is to keep things light weight and be a
toolkit so users can configure tmux to do their bidding.
So I want to state up front that I am *not* suggesting that tmux has x/y/zmodem
built in!!
However hear me out…
On occasion I use xmodem and friends and now that I have discovered tmux I was
wondering how using pipe-pain with xmodem.
Obviously one cannot as pipe-pain starts a new process and takes stdout of the
pain and gives it to stdin of the new process.
What would be really cool is to have a "coprocess" where stdin and stdout of
the pain and pass them to stdout/stdin of a new process.
I am not explaining this very well, but I mean like the "~+" of cu. TO quote
form the cu manpage:
~+ command
Run command, taking the standard input from the remote system and
sending the standard output to the remote system.
This could be used for xmodem type applications or expect script automation,
I'm sure other people would come up with creative ways of using it.
Anyway I thought I'd float the idea to see what people think.
If I have skipped over the tools tmux already has to do this when reading the
tmux manage then firstly I am sorry and secondly please educate me!
