window(1) was removed in NetBSD-6.0, almost 9 years ago. I think most
users have, begrudgingly or not, migrated to tmux(1). There is little
merit in resurrecting window after this much time has passed. Unless
it covers a specific use case that tmux cannot support my opinion is
that it should stay in pkgsrc.
