If it's practical for you, you might try using ratpoison under X. It's
a lightweight window manager inspired by screen, with the added

I've seen several mentions of ratpoison and X.  I'm not running X and
didn't plan to.  How much X is required to run `Ratpoison'.  I do want
a screen with much finer resolution that the stock console setup.  It
is absolutely huge and I want more on the screen.

How do I get a dependancy list of ratpoison?

Ratpoison just needs an X server. Easiest thing would be to use the install set for X to get that going.

Ratpoison itself is quite lightweight. If I remember right, there are *no* dependencies (beyond X). If you're a screen(1) user then you'll feel right at home.
