Of course there are alternatives to GNU Screen. Some are roughly equivalent, such as tmux, while others, such as Terminator (blog) just specializes in splitting one X window into multiple terminals each running an independent shell session. What seems more interesting is combining the facilities of Terminator and Screen.
Solaris 11.3 GA offers a rather outdated versions, 4.0.3, while Solaris 11.4 Beta is packaging version 4.6.1. Perhaps, until Solaris 11.4 official launch that gets better; we'll see. But for now I'm going to build myself version 4.6.2, the latest. By doing this I hope to empower me on building later versions as I please.
The basic building strategy and general assumptions have been detailed on a previous post: Staged Building, so I'll (hopefully) get more straight to the point:
$ pwd
/stage/build
$ ./gnu-build-preparation ../source/.../screen-4.6.2.tar.gz
...
$ cd screen/screen-4.6.2-64
$ source ../setenv 64
CONFIG_SHELL=
CC=/usr/bin/gcc CFLAGS=-m64 -march=core2 -std=gnu89
CXX=/usr/bin/g++ CXXFLAGS=-m64 -march=core2 -std=gnu++03
LD=/usr/bin/ld LDFLAGS=-m64 -march=core2
PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=
Suggested build sequence:
$ ./configure \
--build=x86_64-pc-solaris2.11 \
--prefix=/opt/... \
--enable-pam \
--enable-colors256
$ gmake -j3
For IPS package:
$ sudo gmake DESTDIR=/stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64 install
For immediate use:
$ sudo gmake install
$ sudo zfs snapshot -r .../opt/...@screen-4.6.2
But before actually starting the building process it will be necessary to manually adjust a few gaps which otherwise would result in build failures or suspicious points:
- To avoid the following warning message:
tic: Warning: near line 80: terminal 'screen-256color|VT 100/ANSI X3.64 virtual terminal', 's/screen-256color' filename too long, truncating to 's/screen-256colo'
Edit line 74 of ./terminfo/screeninfo.src adjusting the screen-256colors terminal name to less than 14 chars, which I set to screen-256c. But I'm sure it won't indeed enable 256 colors and cause other negative impacts as I've found out that before getting all the benefits I must update GNU ncurses (which will build a newer version of tic), perhaps manually tweak my terminfo database as well as my TERM environment variable before entering any shell. But for now, it will silence the warning message and let the build proceed smoothly. Later, on another post, I'll come back to this pending issue.
- Edit line 2123 of ./doc/screen.texinfo in order to add a missing "," right after the @xref{Split} on this line. It should be @xref{Split},
- Edit ./config.h.in as follows:
Add the 3 following new lines after line 94:
95
96 #define PTYMODE 0620
97
Add the 2 following new lines to the bottom of the file:
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
- Edit ./Makefile.in as follows:
Add what's highlighted below.
Make sure to use tabs (\t), not spaces, on line starts.

121 cp $(srcdir)/etc/etcscreenrc $(DESTDIR)/etc/screenrc; \
122 fi
NOTE
Don't use --disable-socket-dir.NOTE
This option may reduce functionality and create security issues.
Using --enable-pam may make screen more relocatable (no C-a-x issue). In this case, be sure to adjust /etc/pam.d/screen as follows:
#
# For GNU screen "lockscreen" integration.
#
auth required pam_passwd_auth.so.1
NOTE
On this post I've initially pointed to /opt/software. Later on, after publishing I've realized a better option would have been /opt/gnu because I believe it's better to group all GNU software together. On the other hand, it may be better to group other (non-GNU) software on specific subdirectories of /opt/software or perhaps /opt/sfw or yet /opt/application or /opt/app.
Now it should be OK to proceed as suggested:
$ ./configure \
--build=x86_64-pc-solaris2.11 \
--prefix=/opt/software \
--enable-pam \
--enable-colors256

The staging directory contents will look like:
$ l /stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64/{etc,opt/software/*}
/stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64/etc:
total 9
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root ... screenrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root ... termcap
/stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64/opt/software/bin:
total 714
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root ... screen -> screen-4.6.2
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root ... screen-4.6.2
/stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64/opt/software/share:
total 9
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root ... info
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root ... man
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root ... screen
As seen above the contents expected to be delivered to /etc will have to be considered more carefully, specially when building an IPS package. But this shouldn't be a major issue as the IPS package delivery rules depicted on pkg(5) are flexible enough to cope with virtually all the possibilities.
NOTE
On this post I don't go beyond the staging area intended for a final packaging of the generated artifacts. Otherwise I could immediately deploy (sudo gmake install followed by a sudo zfs snapshot -r ...) as per the last suggestion on the preceeding setenv script. But note that the Makefile.in tweak (#4) will do nothing related to etc because DESTDIR will be empty in this case.
The process for building a 32-bits version is entirely analogous.
Just replace 64 with 32 and use i386-pc-solaris2.11 instead.
Let's rock with the lastest GNU screen!
Even while in the stage area it seems to work mostly right.
Add the /stage/prototype/screen/4.6.2/64/opt/software/bin to PATH.
And just invoke the program:
$ screen
