io.github.libtmux.Buffers.Buffers.set(name: String, contents: String) -> void
```

Puts text in a named buffer, replacing whatever was there.

The contents end the options, because they are the one argument here tmux would otherwise
read as flags: {@code set("clip", "-nfoo")} used to rename the buffer to {@code foo} and write
nothing, and report success.
