Changes since version 4.2.1
---------------------------
Version 4.3.1 (28/06/2015):
* Fix resize bug
Version 4.3.0 (13/06/2015):
* Introduce Xx string escape showing the executed command of a window
* Implement dead/zombie window polling, allowing for auto reconnecting
* Allow setting hardstatus on first line
New Commands:
* 'sort' command sorting windows by title
* 'bumpleft', 'bumpright' - manually move windows on window list
* 'collapse' removing numbering 'gaps' between windows, by renumbering
* 'windows' command now accepts arguments for use with querying
which already tweaked the tty.sh file, name it according to the new rules.
This is to actually get the netbsd-5 branch working with this, since
realpath() insists on a non-NULL second argument.
Version 4.2.1 (28/04/2014):
* allow for terminal with long $TERM (up to 32 characters)
* allow to use long logins
* documentation fixes
* runtime fixes
Version 4.2.0 (17/04/2014):
New Commands:
* 'unbindall' to unbind all commands
* 'up', 'down', 'left', 'right' sub-commands for 'focus'
* 'rendition' to specify rendition to use in caption/hardstatus for
window-names that have bell/monitor/silence/so turned on.
* 'layout', with the following sub-commands
- 'title'
- 'number'
- 'autosave' ('autosave on' or 'autosave off')
- 'new'
- 'save' ('save <name>')
- 'select'
- 'next'
- 'prev'
- 'attach'
- 'show'
- 'remove'
- 'dump'
* 'group' for moving window(s) into a group.
* 'defmousetrack' and 'mousetrack', to turn on/off mouse-tracking for
displays. It's turned off by default. With mouse-tracking turned on, it's
possible to switch to a region ('focus') using mouse clicks. It's also
possible to select a text region in copy-mode using a mouse click to place
a mark and the scroll wheel to scroll through the buffer. Additional
features might be to allow clicking on window-titles in the caption to
switch to that window.
* All commands prefixed '@' are treated as 'quiet', i.e. '@'-prefixed commands
do not trigger any display messages.
Changed Commands:
* '-v' parameter to 'split' command for vertical splits.
* 'sorendition' deprecated in favour of 'rendition so'.
* 'digraph' can take a second parameter to specify custom digraphs. For
example,
'digraph >= ≥' or 'digraph >= U+2265'
Using '0' as the second parameter will remove the digraph.
* 'stuff' will prompt for input if there's nothing to stuff.
* The argument to ":number" can be prefixed with '+' or '-' to use it as a
relative argument.
* '-g' parameter to 'windowlist' to show nested list of windows.
* '//group' parameter to 'screen' to create a grouped window.
* 'blankerprg' shows the currently set command on no argument.
* 'maxwin' can now be used to increase the number of maximum windows.
.screenrc:
* $PID expands to the PID of the screen session.
* $PWD expands to the current working directory of the session.
* $STY expands to the session name.
* Tilde-expansion in pathnames (e.g. for the 'source' command)
* C-style escapes can be used (e.g. "\n" to get a newline with 'stuff')
* '%p' in caption/hardstatus string expands to the PID of the backend, and
'%+p' expands to the PID of the frontend (display).
* '%S' in caption/hardstatus string expands to the session name.
* '%P' in the caption string evaluates to true if the region is in copy mode.
* '%E' in the caption string evaluates to true if the escape character has
currently been pressed.
Window List:
* Nested views when there are window groups (with 'windowlist -g').
* Press 'm' to toggle the most-recent view.
* Press 'g' to toggle nestedness.
* Press 'a' to view all windows in the list.
* Press '/' to search in the list.
* Press ',' and '.' to re-order windows in the list.
* Press 'K' to kill a window (requires confirmation).
Display List:
* Press 'd' to detach a display, 'D' to power-detach.
Others:
* Start using 'ChangeLog' for logging changes again.
* Terminfo update for 256-color support.
* Multiple input history (partially from Romain Francoise).
* vi-like fFtT;, searching in copy mode.
* In copy mode, search in reverse direction when 'N' is pressed.
* Tab-completion for command input.
* Some more readline-like bindings in input mode (e.g. ^W, ^D, ^P, ^N etc.)
* Fix displaying unicode characters in the caption/hardstatus on UTF8 locale.
* A revamped displays list (for 'displays' command)
* Increased default maximum number of windows from 40 to 100.
* Increased number color/attribute changes in caption/hardstatus string from 16 to 256.
* Some commands can be remotely queried using the -Q command-line flag.
In-Progress:
* Scripting support (thanks to Google Summer of Code 2009 project by Rui Guo)
This commit changes patch-aa so that the patched version
of pty.c contains:
... other OS-specific code
... NetBSD-specific openpty() code (from patch-aa)
... generic openpty() code
... last resort code
instead of the previous:
... other OS-specific code
... generic openpty() code
... NetBSD-specific openpty() code (from patch-aa)
... last resort code
History behind this problem:
The NetBSD-specific openpty() code was added in revision 1.1
of misc/screen/patches/patch-aa. (See PR pkg/16901.) At that
time, pkgsrc used screen-3.9.11, and the upstream version of
screen did not use openpty() at all. The patch added an "#if
defined(__NetBSD__)" block as the last OS-specific section in
pty.c, which then had:
... other OS-specific code
... NetBSD-specific openpty() code (from patch-aa)
... last resort code
In screen-3.9.15, upstream added code in pty.c to use openpty().
This was imported to pkgsrc on 2003-03-15. At that time, pkgsrc's
patch-aa accidentally inserted the NetBSD-specific code below
instead of above the new code, so the patched version of pty.c
had:
... other OS-specific code
... generic openpty() code (from upstream)
... NetBSD-specific openpty() code (from patch-aa)
... last resort code
The above is obviously wrong because the generic openpty() code
would be used instead of the NetBSD-specific code, assuming
HAVE_OPENPTY was defined by the configure script.
This problem was reported in PR pkg/25317, but the patch in the PR
was not understood so it was not applied.
This commit changes patch-aa so that the patched version of pty.c
contains:
... other OS-specific code
... NetBSD-specific openpty() code (from patch-aa)
... generic openpty() code (from upstream)
... last resort code
However, it still doesn't work on NetBSD with ptyfs mounted.
NetBSD-current added dwarf.h and that made the code assume that sys/stropts.h
was present without greater need, since configure also checks for
HAVE_SYS_STROPTS_H.
in order to prevent crash on 64-bit architectures. Otherwise the result
of termcap/terminfo detection is wrong, causing the infamous "bad format 'p'"
messages, or "OOPSOOPSOOPS" when SSHing from MacOS.

Update patch-ap for doc/screen.1 so the location of examples files
is corrected.
Now install both examples. Update PLISTs. Note that the
screenrc example is now called screenrc and etcscreenrc is
etcscreenrc (makes sense).
Mention both examples in MESSAGE.
Bump PKGREVISION.
This will solve problem for PR #32391.

Should fix PR 32273.
that forces varargs to be used on NetBSD. Some gcc 3.3 instances
(specifically 3.3.3nb1 on NetBSD/alpha) fail one of the configure
tests making it think we don't have sprintf() (and therefore no
varargs) causing unmentionably evil things to be done instead. This
usually leads to core dumps.
Fix a pointer-to-integer cast warning by casting to long in between.
The actual use case is harmless, but the compiler can't tell that.
Bump PKGREVISION to 1 for the gcc workaround (affects at least
NetBSD/alpha which can now build a better screen).

I am not bumping the nb number because nothing realy changes; you'll

4.0.2 fixes a local privelege escalation problem. See

There's no ChangeLog available, but other than the fix for this
and regeneration of the configure script, changes are extremely
small.
Also, I've removed the info files from PLIST and PLIST.SunOS. They

large login and idle times. This was due to a bug in utmp.c:
in os.h
-------
# define utmp utmpx
# define ut_time ut_xtime
in utmp.c::makeuser()
---------------------
struct utmp *u;
(void)time((time_t *)&u->ut_time);
The above works fine on i386 where ut_xtime and time_t are the same size,
but on sparc64 ut_xtime is 8 bytes rather than 4.
This fix was tested on i386 and sparc64.
