[...] Since you are in Germany, the best place for getting iScreen should be its "home" server, ftp.informatik.uni-erlangen.de. It requires some searching though, the directory structure on this server is like they want to hide their software. :-) Be sure to get the latest version (3.2, if I didn't miss one), since scrollback buffers are not in 3.1. (Cut & paste is, but scrollback is nice!) Juergen Weiger seems to put one new feature into each version. I like it very much, though I use it only with SunOS and 4.3 BSD, not with 386bsd. -- Juergen Nickelsen
