Some and sometimes more, sometimes less.
Thanks for the mention of screen! New to me, though in reading about it,
I wonder if this not the functionality on which the Gnome terminal tabs
lean. In any case, it looks useful - and its picked up newish
programming ownership.
Please feel free to mention the "obvious" with me. Daily, I find
significant gaps and errors in my knowledge... Plus, my old brain isn't
all that good at pulling stuff to the surface these days - even when
I've run across it at some past point!

I'm interested in your experiences with the linux VM on a Chromebook.
The latter relatively cheap, and I've been without a workable laptop
capable of POV-Ray / povr hacking for a long time.
