If you are willing to accept something a bit lighter, look up the
"Session Manager" posting I made over the winter in alt.sources.
I have compiled it on a PS/2 and a S/6000 with good results.

It has one advantage over "screen" and "wm" in that it doesn't
emulate any kind of terminal, so it is more efficient.  And besides,
I wrote it so I have to promote it ;-)
