Screen-4.0 is ready for production ================================== Current version: 4.0.2 Release date: 20031205 14:02 md5sum: ed68ea9b43d9fba0972cb017a24940a1 size: 840519 Screen has been in the 3.x Version numbers for twelve years now. We finally made the jump into the 4.x version numbers. There have been 4.x versions around since September 2003, but there was none on the GNU mirrors and no announcement so far. I have to apologize for that. Also the current 4.0.2 version was already available before winter holidays. Sorry again. We did not come up with major feature additions, just because the major version number changed. We came up with many small changes under the hood. Some changes are invisible to the end user, and most are invisible to the average user. Anyway, here is a summary what happend since screen got its new major version number: - screenblanker support: new 'idle', 'blanker', 'blankerprg' commands. - zmodem support via the 'zmodem' command. - nonblock code rewritten, nonblock now understands a timeout. new command 'defnonblock'. - screenrc parser rewrite Beware of singlequotes ('). The syntax is almost identical, but quoting is now streamlined. Where we had multiple levels of parsing, depending on which command was processed. We now have one level of parsing for all commands and options. - bug fixes. Yes, again users have discovered some new clever ways to make screen misbehave. Most of these could be fixed. + fixed some bugs in the escape-sequence parser (some say this could have been exploitable using excessive gigabytes if data) + fixed Emacs on TTYs. + fixed hardstatus line on blanked screen. + fixed a couple of GBK bugs. - Wishlist processing Many feature-requests we find in well known wish-lists, have been realized. Although most of the under different names and with different side effects. + WindowList - show full title name (%t now expands to the full window name) + windowlist -m (shows list MRU sorted, not numerically) + Copy Mode - additional jump commands ('B' and 'E' now work) + Copy Mode - Block Selection (worked in all screen versions, use 'c' and 'C') + lockscreen_auto N (via 'idle N lock') Have fun! cheers, Jw. -- o \ Juergen Weigert unix-software __/ _=======.=======_ | jw@cs.fau.de creator __/ _---|____________\/ \ | 0179/2069677 __/ (____/ /\ (/) | ____________________________/ _/ \_ vim:set sw=2 wm=8 Yahoo!
