Comparison with byobu #5

Hi,

FYI, this use case seems well covered by byobu, so it would be helpful to compare and contrast them in the readme.

byobu is a terminal multiplexer just like screen, tmux, zellij etc. Shox IS NOT a terminal multiplexer it is simply a status bar for the terminal which can be used either standalone or in conjunction with a terminal multiplexer. ( I personally use shox and zellij together )
