```
pane.CaptureOptions.pending_escape(mut) -> Self
```

Capture the escape sequence the pane has begun but not finished.

tmux's `-P`, and narrower than it sounds: the answer is only the bytes
of an escape sequence that arrived incomplete, not output waiting to be
drawn. A pane in the middle of nothing answers with nothing. It
diagnoses a program that stopped mid-sequence; it is not a way to read
output early.

## Example

```rust
use libtmux::CaptureOptions;

let partial = CaptureOptions::visible().pending_escape();
assert_ne!(partial, CaptureOptions::visible());
```
