I type "screen emacs" about once every three months or so, and just keep reconnecting to it over and over again. I sometimes fire up shells inside, and can leave them running tasks while I'm away, and yet have full access to the output when I return. In fact, I'm typing this inside that session, using the GNUS mail/newsreader. I have an IRC client in another Emacs window, and I use dired for all my disk editing. -- Randal L.
