Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical 
terminal between several processes (typically interactive shells). Each 
virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in 
addition, several control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 
2022 standards (e.g. insert/delete line and support for multiple character 
sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and 
a copy-and-paste mechanism that allows moving text regions between 
windows.
