Other vtm: A tiling window manager

There was an attempt to port it to FreeBSD, see PR 263864. I want to help porting it but I don't know much CMake so couldn't deal with lua thing in CMakeLists.txt and would like some help, thanks in advance.
 
Isn't there something that does this already? I'm trying to remember the name---ah dvtm. Yes, I did find it useful, and when first installing a system, before I would put X in, I'd sometimes use that, but as LibreQuest says, usually, I wind up using tmux for that sort of thing as I'm more used to it. I think dvtm used ctl+g as its prefix, or something similar, and I was already so used to ctl+b for tmux. (The other option is to have two ssh sessions from another machine.) But I digress, as usual, because I'm old and senile--anyway, dtvm is a package and I believe it would achieve the same purpose. Of course, nothing wrong with someone else doing something similar, maybe it has better builtin keyboard shortcuts, etc.

Ahh--looking at the video, it is more sophisticated than dtvm.

I fixed the lua part in port and submitted. Port seems to work fine in xterm, it didn't work in suckless st, though (even though it's listed as tested terminal). I am willing to be it's maintainer.
