GNU Screen is a terminal multiplexer, a software application that can be used to multiplex several virtual consoles, allowing a user to access multiple separate login sessions inside a single terminal window, or detach and reattach sessions from a terminal. It is useful for dealing with multiple programs from a command line interface, and for separating programs from the session of the Unix shell that started the program, particularly so a remote process continues running even when the user is disconnected.

Capture the screen's content. Press the 'Print screen' button to copy the screen's contents. Look for a 'PrtScn' key along the function keys of your keyboard, which are the F1 to F12 keys. The 'PrtScn' button will let you copy the screen's contents into the computer's clipboard. If you want to be able to specify an arbitrary portion of the screen to take a screenshot of (so, not the same rectangle every time) then it would probably be better to create a new surface, blit the desired portion of the screen to that surface, and then save it. Another common way to copy information is to use a screen grabber application. It is more complicated to disable copy where a screen grabber is involved. It will usually have its own method for making a copy of the screen. So to disable copy of screen grabs it is necessary to do several things: present a false image to the screen grabber. Copywriting is part of the design process. Many designers think writing is not in their job description, but this could not be farther from the truth. Copywriting is part of design. Sketching the copy. During the screen design process, the best method for writing is similar to the one in case of drawing: we need to make sketches first. The whole screen is copied to the clipboard. You just need to paste it to another application like Paint or Photoshop. Step 4: On Surface 3 Type Cover, you also can press the 'Alt + PrtScn' key to capture the active window instead of the whole screen. Method 3: Use Surface Pen to do a screen capture.

Released under the terms of version 3 or later of the GNU General Public License, GNU Screen is free software.

Features[edit]

GNU Screen can be thought of as a text version of graphical window managers, or as a way of putting virtual terminals into any login session. It is a wrapper that allows multiple text programs to run at the same time, and provides features that allow the user to use the programs within a single interface productively. This enables the following features: persistence, multiple windows, and session sharing.

Screen is often used when a network connection to the terminal is unreliable, as a dropped network connection typically terminates all programs the user was running (child processes of the login session), due to the session ending and sending a 'hangup' signal (SIGHUP) to all the child processes. Running the applications under screen means that the session does not terminate – only the now-defunct terminal gets detached – so applications don't even know the terminal has detached, and allows the user to reattach the session later and continue working from where they left off.

History[edit]

Screen was originally designed by Oliver Laumann and Carsten Bormann at the Technical University of Berlin and published in 1987.[1][2]

Design criteria included VT100 emulation (including ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 2022) and reasonable performance for heavy daily use when character-based terminals were still common. Later, the at-the-time novel feature of disconnection/reattachment was added.

Around 1990, Laumann handed over maintenance of the code to Jürgen Weigert and Michael Schroeder at the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg, who later moved the project to the GNU Project and added features such as scrollback, split-screen, copy-and-paste, and screen sharing.[3]

By 2014, development had slowed to a crawl. Wanting to change this, Amadeusz Sławiński volunteered to help. In response, Laumann granted him maintainership. Sławiński proceeded to put out the first new Screen release in half a decade. Because there were some unofficial 'Screen 4.1' releases floating around the Internet, he called this new release 'Screen 4.2.0'.

Part

In May 2015, on openSUSE Conference, Jürgen Weigert invited Alexander Naumov to help to develop and maintain GNU screen. Two months later with Alex's help GNU screen 4.3.0 was released.
