It is a lot better then wm, although I use screen because I feel that a normal terminal windowing package should be invisable, (You don't know your in it unless you want to know about it) and it is quite fast. If you are in BSD window or wm and you type clear you can actuly see it write over the other chars on the screen and then home. Screen on the other hand clears the screen in a snap. The only thing I don't like about screen is that it should emulate a vt220 or something more advanced then a vt100. --Jon
