RE: Screen for cygwin


Isn't the slow connection the most important criteria?
After all, most people who need multiple "windows" (which
screens provides) normally think of using X to get
those extra windows, but wouldn't want to use X if the
connection is slow.

Let's hope the Cygwin port gets picked up by the 'screen'
maintainers so it's not an orphan.
