Wizards considered harmful

What the fuck, screen? I thought you were cool. Why the hell create this ``user-friendly'' bullshit ruining the screen experience?

Anyway, what is a good screen alternative?
Preferably done in Haskell, with no insulting curses/GUI handholding.

(WMs don't count. Tunneling this stuff over the network is a ridiculous waste of bandwidth.)

unfortunately the only decent alternative is to use an older, less gay version of screen.
or write a new one. but if you do that, please don't license it under that non-free license that everyone thinks is free.

What the shit?

But I don't see what the direct problem is unless you're running Banto.

Suddenly the Dungeon collapses!! - You die...

Further proof that Ubanto users are the scum of the Linux community.

But the wizard can probably generate configuration files for these older versions. What's the point of using screen now that any retard can master it?

There's not an alternative. Go write one yourself and post it on Hackage.
