Patch from Azundris for Escreen. In her words: Debian Unstable comes with a version that is newer than 3.09.11 (which most other distributions seem to have). On top of that, it comes with a global setup file in /etc that breaks our very best intentions. Find enclosed some modifications that will (hopefully) make screen work on those special Debs in your life as well as on the machines it used to run on so far. As a side-effect, the default action is now -RDD rather than -xRR, but since several people have requested that anyways, I might be the only one missing the previous default. Guess I'll change my actionclasses.cfg and hold my peace forever. : ) SVN revision: 6417
