I haven't analysed that yet. I only tested 'mc' and it behaves
differently when running inside/outside the 'screen' session.
If it runs outside, then I get the previous terminal state.
If it runs inside, the screen is cleaned and the cursor is
at the bottom of the terminal window. Maybe a similar behaviour
could be achieved? Don't know ...
