```
tmux.Server.SetEscapeTime(ctx: context.Context, value: time.Duration) -> error
```

SetEscapeTime stores the "escape-time" server option as time.Duration (tmux 3.2a or later). Read it with [ServerOptionValues.EscapeTime] from [Server.Options]; [Server.UnsetOption] restores inheritance or the global default.
