+Byobu is a Japanese term for decorative, multi-panel screens that serve as
+folding room dividers. As an open source project, Byobu is an elegant
+enhancement of the otherwise functional, plain, practical GNU Screen. Byobu
+includes an enhanced profile and configuration utilities for the GNU screen
+window manager, such as toggle-able system status notifications.
+
+To convert an already running screen session to byobu, just install this
+package, then run:
+
+ CTRL-a :source /usr/share/byobu/profiles/byoburc
+
+that's all!
+
+This package requires newt.
