Thanks for the suggestion but that's not really an option here - many of
the systems I'm logging into don't have the requisite bits available to
use freenx and are not under my direct control. Using one host as a
"gateway" where all the terminal windows live would also be a bit
restrictive for the way that I work.
I'm guess I'm pretty settled in my ways with screen etc. and it fits
nicely into the way I like to organise my work. Screen did not have this
behavior back in FC6, so it appears that something changed in the meantime.

I've tried FreeNX and for what it does, it's definitely a big step up
from vnc etc., but I'd still like screen to work the way it used to -
it's a bit of a "from my cold dead hands" issue I guess :-)
Regards,
Bryn.
