Twin (acronym for "Textmode WINdow") is a windowing environment with mouse support, window manager, terminal emulator and networked clients, all inside a text mode display. Twin supports a variety of displays: * plain text computer terminals (any termcap/ncurses compatible terminal, the virtual console, Twin's own terminal emulator); *X11, where it can be used as a multi-window Xterm; * itself (it is possible to display a Twin on, or "inside", another Twin); *''twdisplay'', a general network-transparent display client, used to attach/detach more displays "on the fly".〔(Twin's README file )〕 Twin is tested on Linux (x86, PowerPC, DEC Alpha, SPARC) and on FreeBSD; porting to SunOS is in progress. ==Uses== The terminal emulator Eterm has an interface layer named ''Escreen'' for interoperating with the terminal multiplexers GNU Screen or Twin. This allows Eterm to support multiple sub-shell sessions within a single window. This feature works similarly to the "tabbed" sessions offered by terminal emulators such as Konsole or GNOME Terminal. However, being an interface to existing software, Escreen has the advantage of providing additional capabilities like multiple regions per display, detach/reattach capability, seamless remote session support, firewall support, and more.〔"Escreen" section of Eterm manual page〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Twin (windowing system)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
