%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Screen-&screen-version; Screen Introduction to Screen Screen is a terminal multiplexor that runs several separate processes, typically interactive shells, on a single physical character-based terminal. Each virtual terminal emulates a DEC VT100 plus several ANSI X3.64 and ISO 2022 functions and also provides configurable input and output translation, serial port support, configurable logging, multi-user support, and many character encodings, including UTF-8. Screen sessions can be detached and resumed later on a different terminal. &lfs80_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &screen-md5sum; Download size: &screen-size; Estimated disk space required: &screen-buildsize; Estimated build time: &screen-time; Screen Dependencies Optional User Notes: Installation of Screen Install Screen by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --with-socket-dir=/run/screen \ --with-pty-group=5 \ --with-sys-screenrc=/etc/screenrc && sed -i -e "s%/usr/local/etc/screenrc%/etc/screenrc%" {etc,doc}/* && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && install -m 644 etc/etcscreenrc /etc/screenrc Command Explanations --with-socket-dir=/run/screen: This option places the per-user sockets in a standard location. --with-sys-screenrc=/etc/screenrc: This option places the global screenrc file in /etc. --with-pty-group=5: This option sets the gid to the value used by LFS. Older versions of LFS use the value 4 for the tty group. If you are using LFS version 7.1 or older, change the pty-group option to 4. sed -i -e "s%/usr/local/etc/screenrc%/etc/screenrc%" {etc,doc}/*: This command corrects the configuration and documentation files to the location that is used here for the global screenrc file.
