GNU Screen

Screen is a text console window manager that generates virtual terminals (PTYs) for interactive processes. A scrollback history buffer allows copy&paste, a detach feature saves your session for later reconnect.

tmux

tmux is a "terminal multiplexer", it enables a number of terminals (or windows) to be accessed and controlled from a single terminal. tmux is intended to be a simple, modern, BSD-licensed alternative to programs such as GNU screen.

dtach

dtach is a tiny program that emulates the detach feature of screen, allowing you to run a program in an environment that is protected from the controlling terminal and attach to it later. dtach does not keep track of the contents of the screen, and thus works best with programs that know how to ... [More] redraw themselves. dtach does not, however, have the other features of screen, such as its support of multiple terminals or its terminal emulation support. This makes dtach extremely tiny compared to screen, making it more easily audited for bugs and security holes, and also allows it to fit in environments where space is limited, such as on rescue disks.

neercs

neercs is a work-in-progress libcaca project. Like GNU screen, it allows you to detach a session from a terminal, but provides unique features: * Grabbing a process that you forgot to start inside neercs * Great screensaver * 3D rotating cube to switch between full screen terms * Real time ... [More] thumbnails of your shells * Special effects when closing a window * Various window layouts... [Less]

M2Curses

Modula-2 bindings for the curses screen management library. Work in progress. BSD style license.

shelr

Console screencasting tool Shelr.tv allows you to record something interesting from your terminal and share it to your followers. It is almost the same thing as YouTube but for plain text shellcasts. You can copy and paste everything you see.
