The screen Portfile 45786 2009-01-22 02:52:52Z digdog macports.org #$

PortSystem 1.0

Name: screen
Version: 4.0.3
Revision: 3
Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/
Description: Screen manager with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
Long 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.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/screen
%  sudo port install screen  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching screen
--->  Verifying checksum for screen
--->  Extracting screen
--->  Configuring screen
--->  Building screen with target all

--->  Staging screen into destroot

--->  Installing screen

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using screen with these commands:

%  man screen
%  apropos screen
%  which screen
%  locate screen
