Reposted-by: emv@ox.com (Edward Vielmetti)

Thankyou to the two people who replied. As promised, here is my reply:

Patrick Wolfe (pat@kai.com, uunet!kailand!pat) replies saying screen has
been ported to IRIX by Jim Barton from Silicon Graphics (jmb@sgi.sgi.com)
I was given a copy by mail, which compiled after modifying lines 1787/8
so that the return value from setutent() was not checked.
This version of screen now works fine.

I am not sure if this version of screen can be ftp'd from anywhere.


I also received a reply from Christos Zoulas (christos@ee.cornell.edu)
indicating that he had ported screen to HP-UX, which could be ftp'd
from tesla.ee.cornell.edu:pub/screen.tar.Z

This wasn't particularly useful for IRIX, due to differences in the pty
interface, but it may be useful to those people with some other variants
of System V who want screen.
