Thanks to Jason Merrill. - -* Screen now has a very large 'configure' script. If you have - problems with the resulting configuration please send mail to - screen@uni-erlangen.de. - -* Stackable overlay planes. - All commands are available even if you work with an overlay. Thus - you can be in copy/paste mode on several windows! - -* Unification of key bindings and screen commands. All keys now generate - commands. - -* Screen now reads/writes only in asyncronous mode. - -* Ansi parser speedup code resulting in much faster output of text. - -* Changed the rc file syntax. Commands now directly affect the current - window. The default settings are changed with 'def...' commands. - The 'set' keyword no longer exists. - Please run the 'newsyntax' script on your old screenrc files! - -* Emacs style isearch added to copy mode. Try ^A ESC ^R screen ^R ^R - to locate the last three occurences of the word 'screen' in the - history buffer. - -* New command 'silence'. Alarms the user whenever there was inactivity - for a specified amount of time on a certain window. - Useful if you want to wait for a compilation to end. - -* Much better margin handling: - Screen now handles autowrapped lines correctly in the redisplay and - copy/paste functions. - -* New commands for pastebuffer management: - 'copy_reg' copies the pastebuffer to a register, - 'ins_reg' pastes a register, - 'register' fills a register with a string, - 'process' stuffs a register into strings input queue. - -* Autonuke feature. Flush the output buffer if the window gets - cleared. Enable this with 'autonuke on'. - -* Modifications to save memory: Empty attribute and font lines don't - get allocated. This is very useful if you have a lage scrollback. - -* Multi display support: - You can now attach from more than one terminal to a session with - the '-x' option. - -* New option '-S' to specify socket name. - -* Experimental multiuser support added: - You can start screen in multiuser Mode by prepending the socket - name with a '/' (or by the command 'multiuser on'). - If another user wants to attach to the screen session, he can do - this by prepending the socketname with 'screenuser/'. - Of course he must be in the access control list for a successful - attach (see the acladd/acldel command). - -* Extension to the 'screen' command: You can now specify tty lines - instead of programs. This can be used for console management. - Added the command 'break' to send a break to the tty line. - Not really a new feature, but terminal initialisation now works - on suns. - -* Input/output filters added. This has been implemented to allow the - user to configure an open tty line, but got soon exended to allow - all sorts of filters. For more information read the explanation - of the 'exec' command in the man page and check the 'fdpat.ps' - document. - -* Screen can now be started detached (screen -d -m -S sockname). - This is usefull if you want to start screen in your /etc/rc file - (e.g. as a console multiplexer) - -* Console grabbing added ('console on' command). - -* Windows can now be selected by akas, too. (Per default bound to the - >'< key.) - -* New terminal capabiliteise CS/CE for cursorkey control. - -* setenv/unsetenv commands added. - -* Expansion of environment variables ($VAR) and terminal capabilities - ($:TC:) in the screenrc files and detach messages. - Example: pow_detach_msg "Session of \$LOGNAME \$:cr:\$:nl:ended." - -* New commands: - 'hardcopydir' and 'logdir' to change the output directories, - 'partial' and 'allpartial' to make screen only refresh the line - containing the cursor if a window is selected (useful for slow - modem connections). - -* Cleanup of the provided termcap/terminfo file. Please install - the new one! - -* The program 'terminfo/checktc.c' does a visual check of a - termcap/terminfo entry. Please try it before calling screen and - in a screen session. - -* LOTS of bugfixes and code cleanup. - -Thanks to all the beta testers who helped porting screen to at least -the following platforms: Ultrix, SunOS, Solaris, BSD43, linux, NEWSOS, -Irix, OSF/1, Harris CX/UX, hpux, dynix/ptx, AIX. -And even more thanks to the brave who attempted to use the 'exec' -command features. - - Donnate patches, bugreports, suggestions, money, beer & pizza to - screen@uni-erlangen.de - |
