```
cmd(
  command: string,
  args: readonly string[] = [],
  options?: CmdOptions,
): Promise<readonly string[]>
```

Run a tmux command this package does not model, addressed at this window.

The window's id is sent as the target; pass `target` to address something
else, or [`null`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/null) for a command that takes none — [`display-panes`](/en/tmux/latest/manual/display-panes/) takes a
client, so it wants `{ target: `[`null`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/null)` }` and not this window's `@n`.

## Examples

```ts
await window.cmd("rotate-window");
```

## Parameters

- `command` (`string`)
- `args` (`readonly string[]`)
  Default: `[]`.
- `options?` (`CmdOptions`)
