I still don't understand the current craze about window, since it doesn't have the one killer feature of screen, namely the ability to attach/detach sessions at will... I mean, probably like a lot of people, my main use of screen is to have interactive sessions I can keep around from login to login, or around a flaky network connection. Nothing as unpleasant as having a build fail just because your network timed out and make got SIGHUP'ed.
