Back when I used OSF/1, there was this neat program called "window" that
was a lot like screen except that you could have each terminal running in
a overlapped window rather than switching between apps "full screen".

Is something like that available anywhere else?  I liked being able to
have a compile or download running in a tiny window at the top, while my
main application (lynx, pine, etc.) was running below.

Sounds like you need some color text at 132x50 to lighten up your life. :)
