- Description:
- 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.

sysutils/screen-devel: Update distfile
When unpacking the tarballs there is no material difference between the
old and the new files. Additionally, there is no difference when
comparing the two tarballs after unzipping the .gz files. One must
conclude the files are compressed differently as the new .gz file is 4K
smaller then the previous file.
