Title:          dtach-0.8.tcz
Description:    Tiny app gives the "detach" function of "GNU Screen"  (TESTING)
Version:        0.8
Author:         Ned T. Crigler copyright 2004-2008
Original-site:  http://sourceforge.net/projects/dtach

Comments:       "dtach" allows a console application to be "detached"
        from the screen and associated with a file for later retrieval.
       
        Basic use is to start a CLI appliation with:
       
        dtach -c  /tmp/foo application (foo being whatever..)
        example:"dtach -c /tmp/foo elinks"
        You can then move on to something else with:
(control backslash)
Ctrl\  will return you to the CLI prompt.

        Multiple programs can be "dtach"-ed to /tmp/foo1, etc.
        The dtach'd app can be recovered with
       
        dtach -a /tmp/foo  (multiples with foo1, etc)

The app can be "brought back" at your original terminal,
or from  anywhere you can ssh into your machine.

Useful in Microcore, works from Aterm in Tinycore, too.
