Yes.  Beautiful, Andrew.

You said you needed text for the release announcement.  I'm not sure what it's
supposed to look like, but you can use this, if it works: 

screen-256color: GNU Screen compiled with the --enable-colors256 flag; without
this flag, terminals launched from within Screen can only show 16 colors. 
Depending on your terminal, you may need to launch Screen as
'TERM=screen-256color screen' in order for 256 colors to work.

Thanks again, Andrew.

-Justin
