by wattafunnyname - May 7th 2008 08:38:50
This is one of the most useful tools ever. How can anybody rate it less
than 10???
i like to combine it with dvtm, a console wm.

Screen: The Serious Window Manager
by Richard Harris - Mar 18th 2004 14:48:31
If you love this geek stuff, you will probably find yourself leaving
something like
Windows for something like Unix, GUIs for the command line, graphical
editors for emacs
or vi, and finally -- the X server for console mode. When you get down
here in the
black aether with the grunting codeheads (like me) I recommend you try
Screen. The more
you use it, the more amazing it is. (Screen addicts will know the joys of
detaching and
juggling multiple screen sessions.) Start out with a text-browser,
editor, shell and su
in your .screenrc and discover the dark burn of console fonts glimmering
in virtual
console-space. Once you get used to it down here, you'll never go back to
high-density
pixels. (You can try to go back but they'll make your eyes hurt.)

Fix for backspace problem on some systems
by devel at hastek - Sep 25th 2003 23:49:59
I am only posting this because I didn't find the answer readily in the
archives or elsewhere.
The key bindings have always been fine under Linux, under Freebsd 4.x
using bash, the backspace key is not mapped to "erase". I ended
up with
bindkey -d -k kb stuff "\010"
in my .screenrc and it seems to work fine.
This didn't work until I put the quotes around the character code. Perhaps
this would be a useful example in the manpage?

Re: Fix for backspace problem on some systems

I had this problem running screen on FBSD, whilst logged in over ssh from a
Linux box running X. The line:
*VT100*backarrowKey: 1
in .Xdefaults solved the problem.

Second only to vim, screen is the most useful of programs. (now zipping

What I think you want is "xmove"
http://www.lbl.gov/ITSD/CIS/UNIX/Software/modules/xmove.html
From manual page (xmove):
NAME xmove - pseudoserver to support mobile X11 clients
DESCRIPTION xmove starts a pseudoserver which allows X11 clients to be
relocated from one display to another. Upon startup it will create a
listening port from which it accepts new client connections. When xmove is
invoked it chooses a default server, and all clients will be displayed on
that server until moved elsewhere. Several clients may connect through a
single xmove, thus requiring only one xmove process per machine.
xmove is in the FreeBSD ports tree, the NetBSD pkg collection, Debian
GNU/Linux
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/xmove.html

?

Found the answer myself :)
"shell -/some/sh"
in the .screenrc
The dash makes it all ! :)

Fanmail III
by Wilmer van der Gaast - May 5th 2001 19:46:03
This program allows me to get the most out of my Digital VT510. Multiple
programs at once, full screen, and somehow it makes joe (the only editor ;)
work. The program sucks without screen.
Thanks!!! :)

There's a binary rpm of it on redhat.
ftp://contrib.redhat.com/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/screen-3.9.4-2.i386.rpm
The features are pretty cool. It might be worth playing with the alien
util to convert the rpm to tar.gz.
