		betaby on Jan 2, 2025 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: iTerm2 critical security release Complete I would say. However Mac uses GNU software from around 2006, since around that time a lot of GNU software switched from GPLv2 to GPLv3. That means Mac ships GNU screen version 4 from 2006, while latest version is 5.
