Hi Paul,

Thanks! I creatively plagiarized your reply and added it to that Wiki page.
Please take a look at the bottom of the page and let me know if anything's not
right. Cheers,

Sergey.

Quoting Paul Mahon <dufflebunk AT dufflebunk.homeip.net>:

Cast tries to detect if it's running inside another screen. If it is, it
will turn off the screen mode and cast normally. I would like to be able
to do a screen in screen thing, but so far all I've gotten is weird
behaviour in my (few) attempts.

Workaround:
Ssh to a box, then run screen, then run cast: will result in an ordinary
cast.
Run screen, ssh to a box, then run cast: will result in a screen mode
cast.

Although in the latter case you'll probably want to change the
SCREEN_KEY variable in /etc/sorcery/screen or add a line to your
local/config. Using ssh/screen in this way may or may not give the
desired result. From my experience it's the only way I've managed to get
screen in screen working.
