Hi Florent. There is a patch that's been available for a while, that adds vertical split support to screen. I believe that Debian, Ubuntu, and probably others already incorporate it into their official screen packages. I remember the exchange with Jeenu, and after that I did go get the patch, build screen with it for Cygwin, and try it out. What I found, if I remember right, is that I saw a lot of what I considered strange behavior, and very little documentation or help about how the vertical split feature is supposed to work. It didn't seem to me to be working very well, so I put it aside. If people would like to try out the patched version, I can post it as a test release. Maybe you can tell me if the vertical split feature is working the way it's supposed to.
