-                  ----------------------------
-                   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]'
+* new screenrc parser, not 100% compatible.
 
-* 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.
+* screenblanker support: new 'idle', 'blanker', 'blankerprg'
+  commands.
 
-* 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
+* zmodem support via the 'zmodem' command.
 
-* 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.
+* nonblock code rewritten, nonblock now understands a timeout.
+  new command 'defnonblock'.
