- Hmmm...here's the part of the readme from screen3:
-
- "screen" is a window manager that allows you to handle several independent
- screens (UNIX ttys) on a single physical terminal; each screen has its own
- set of processes connected to it (typically interactive shells). Each
- virtual terminal created by "screen" emulates a DEC VT100 plus several ANSI
- X3.64 and ISO 2022 functions (including DEC VT102 features such as line and
- character deletion and insertion).
-
- Since "screen" uses pseudo-ttys, the select system call, and UNIX-domain
- sockets, it will not run under a system that does not include these
- features of 4.2 and 4.3 BSD UNIX.
