/**
 * Implements a simple tiling window manager.  A root non-moveable
 * non-resizable terminal window is created first, which can be split
 * horizontally or vertically.  Each new window retains a reference to its
 * "parent", and upon closing resizes that parent back to its original size.
 *
 * This example shows what can be done with minimal changes to stock Jexer
 * widgets. You will quickly see that closing a "parent" tile does not cause
 * the "child" tile to resize.  You could make a real subclass of
 * TTerminalWindow that has extra fields and/or communicates more with
 * JexerTilingWindowManager to get full coverage of tile creation,
 * destruction, placement, movement, and so on.
