Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Ever since screen has been ported to cygwin, I have been wondering how I am supposed to use it. When I log off Linux, the screen process continues; when I log off Windows, the screen process is closed. How does that help me? And what about cron? Am I supposed to use cron while I am logged in the whole time?
