Undo the quoting tmux applies when it prints a value.
tmux picks one of four forms, and a reader that knows only one corrupts the rest: '
for an empty value; double quotes when the value contains any of#';${}; single quotes when it contains a double quote; and otherwise no quotes at all. Inside any of them the body is escaped the wayvisdoes it —\t,\n,\\,\ooo` for a byte with no printable form — and a leading tilde is escaped whether or not anything else is.This is the inverse of tmux's own
args_escape, so a value read here and written back is the value that was there.
