Version 4.2.1 (28/04/2014):
* allow for terminal with long $TERM (up to 32 characters)
* allow to use long logins
* documentation fixes
* runtime fixes
Version 4.2.0 (17/04/2014):
New Commands:
* 'unbindall' to unbind all commands
* 'up', 'down', 'left', 'right' sub-commands for 'focus'
* 'rendition' to specify rendition to use in caption/hardstatus for
window-names that have bell/monitor/silence/so turned on.
* 'layout', with the following sub-commands
- 'title'
- 'number'
- 'autosave' ('autosave on' or 'autosave off')
- 'new'
- 'save' ('save <name>')
- 'select'
- 'next'
- 'prev'
- 'attach'
- 'show'
- 'remove'
- 'dump'
* 'group' for moving window(s) into a group.
* 'defmousetrack' and 'mousetrack', to turn on/off mouse-tracking for
displays. It's turned off by default. With mouse-tracking turned on, it's
possible to switch to a region ('focus') using mouse clicks. It's also
possible to select a text region in copy-mode using a mouse click to place
a mark and the scroll wheel to scroll through the buffer. Additional
features might be to allow clicking on window-titles in the caption to
switch to that window.
* All commands prefixed '@' are treated as 'quiet', i.e. '@'-prefixed commands
do not trigger any display messages.
Changed Commands:
* '-v' parameter to 'split' command for vertical splits.
* 'sorendition' deprecated in favour of 'rendition so'.
* 'digraph' can take a second parameter to specify custom digraphs. For
example,
'digraph >= ≥' or 'digraph >= U+2265'
Using '0' as the second parameter will remove the digraph.
* 'stuff' will prompt for input if there's nothing to stuff.
* The argument to ":number" can be prefixed with '+' or '-' to use it as a
relative argument.
* '-g' parameter to 'windowlist' to show nested list of windows.
* '//group' parameter to 'screen' to create a grouped window.
* 'blankerprg' shows the currently set command on no argument.
* 'maxwin' can now be used to increase the number of maximum windows.
.screenrc:
* $PID expands to the PID of the screen session.
* $PWD expands to the current working directory of the session.
* $STY expands to the session name.
* Tilde-expansion in pathnames (e.g. for the 'source' command)
* C-style escapes can be used (e.g. "\n" to get a newline with 'stuff')
* '%p' in caption/hardstatus string expands to the PID of the backend, and
'%+p' expands to the PID of the frontend (display).
* '%S' in caption/hardstatus string expands to the session name.
* '%P' in the caption string evaluates to true if the region is in copy mode.
* '%E' in the caption string evaluates to true if the escape character has
currently been pressed.
Window List:
* Nested views when there are window groups (with 'windowlist -g').
* Press 'm' to toggle the most-recent view.
* Press 'g' to toggle nestedness.
* Press 'a' to view all windows in the list.
* Press '/' to search in the list.
* Press ',' and '.' to re-order windows in the list.
* Press 'K' to kill a window (requires confirmation).
Display List:
* Press 'd' to detach a display, 'D' to power-detach.
Others:
* Start using 'ChangeLog' for logging changes again.
* Terminfo update for 256-color support.
* Multiple input history (partially from Romain Francoise).
* vi-like fFtT;, searching in copy mode.
* In copy mode, search in reverse direction when 'N' is pressed.
* Tab-completion for command input.
* Some more readline-like bindings in input mode (e.g. ^W, ^D, ^P, ^N etc.)
* Fix displaying unicode characters in the caption/hardstatus on UTF8 locale.
* A revamped displays list (for 'displays' command)
* Increased default maximum number of windows from 40 to 100.
* Increased number color/attribute changes in caption/hardstatus string from 16 to 256.
* Some commands can be remotely queried using the -Q command-line flag.
In-Progress:
* Scripting support (thanks to Google Summer of Code 2009 project by Rui Guo)
