- What's new in screen-3.9 ?
- ----------------------------
-
-* real multiuser support
- A window can now be displayed on more than one attached displays.
- Screen does all the necessary clipping if the window size doesn't
- fit the display.
- New command:
- ^AF - fit the window size into the display size.
-
-* split screen support
- A display may now host multiple windows.
- New commands:
- ^AS - split horizontally. This add another region to the display
- ^A<Tab> - move the focus to the next region
- ^AX - kill the current region
- ^AQ - kill all other regions
-
-* hardstatus emulation support
- The last line of the display may now be used as a hardstatus
- line if the terminal doesn't have the 'hs' capability.
- New commands:
- hardstatus [always]lastline
- hardstatus [always]message
- hardstatus [always]ignore
-
-* configurable window seperator and hardstatus strings
- The window (region) seperator and the hardstatus can be set to an
- arbitrary string containing screen's % escape sequences.
- The window's hardstatus is just another escape sequence, '%h'.
- New commands:
- hardstatus string [string]
- caption string [string]
- The default strings are "%h" (hardstatus) and "%3n %t" (caption).
-
-* permanent window seperator
- The window seperator can be set to stay on screen even if
- the display contains only one region
- New commands:
- caption always
- caption splitonly
-
-* many new escapes
- %c - current time HH:MM (*CHANGE*: this was %w in screen-3.7)
- %C - current time HH:MM in 24h format
- %l - the load of the system
- %h - hardstatus of the window
- %w - all window names
- %W - all window names except the current window
- %u - all other users on this window
- %? - the part to the next %? is displayed only if an escape
- expands to an nonempty string.
- %: - "else" part of %?
- Some escapes like %c may be qualified with a '0' (like %0c)
- to make screen use '0' instead of space as a filler.
- Others understand a length qualifier, like %3n.
- If escapes like the current time are used as hardstatus/caption
- string screen will update them so that you can always have
- the current time onscreen.
- *CHANGE* ~ is no longer used as bell character, use ^G instead!
-
-* logfile timestamps and flush timeout
- New commands:
- logfile flush <secs>
- logtstamp [on|off]
- logtstamp string [string]
- logtstamp after [secs]
-
-* configurable breaktype
- You can now choose one of TIOCSBRK, TCSBRK, tcsendbreak.
- New commands:
- breaktype
- defbreaktype
-
-* other new commands:
- hstatus - set the window's hardstatus
- defslowpaste
- defsilence
-
-* optional builtin telnet.
- This is useful if screen is used as frontend to a terminal
- multiplexor. Use //telnet to access the builtin telnet program,
- as in: 'screen //telnet host [port]'
-
-* remote detach and reattach change:
- '-d' is now ignored if the screen is already detached and you
- want to reattach. You can also use '-RR' to make screen use
- the first session found if more than one session is available.
- Thus '-d -RR' or '-x -RR' always gets you a screen.
-
-* support for history compaction
- You can tell screen to suppress trailing blank lines when
- scolling up text into the history buffer. (Wayne Davison)
- New command:
- compacthist
-
-* optional Braille support. If you can read Braille and have one of
- the devices listed in README.DOTSCREEN, please compile with
- -DHAVE_BRAILLE and let us know if this feature is useful.
