```
window.Window.respawn(command: : string, options: : RespawnOptions) -> Promise<void>
```

Restart the command running in this window's active pane.

tmux refuses a window that is still running something unless `kill` says
to replace it.

## Example

```ts
await window.respawn("sh", { kill: true });
```
