Each virtual terminal +provides the functions of the DEC VT100 terminal and, in addition, several +control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 2022 standards (e.g., +insert/delete line and support for multiple character sets). There is a +scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and a copy-and-paste +mechanism that allows the user to move text regions between windows. When screen +is called, it creates a single window with a shell in it (or the specified +command) and then gets out of your way so that you can use the program as you +normally would. Then, at any time, you can create new (full-screen) windows with +other programs in them (including more shells), kill the current window, view a +list of the active windows, turn output logging on and off, copy text between +windows, view the scrollback history, switch between windows, etc. All windows +run their programs completely independent of each other. Programs continue to +run when their window is currently not visible and even when the whole screen +session is detached from the users terminal. +</longdescription> + <use> + <flag name="multiuser">Enable multiuser support (by setting correct + permissions)</flag> + <flag name="nethack">Express error messages in nethack style</flag> + <flag name="utmp">Include utmp support</flag> + </use> +</pkgmetadata> |
