 Today the majority of Zephyr users use the barnowl client.  There are other clients as well (for example, Pidgin supports Zephyr).  The following sections will go into detail about how to install, use, and customize barnowl.
 
+=== Other Clients ===
+
+There are other clients besides Barnowl, however their use is not nearly as widespread.  Some of these include:
+
+* Owl (unmaintained, Barnowl evolved from this)[[BR]]
+* vt / jervt[[BR]]
+* zwgc (see TraditionalZephyr)[[BR]]
+* Pidgin[[BR]]
+* zephyr-mode for emacs[[BR]]
+
+Using Barnowl is recommended, as it is better supported and more documentation exists for it.

-
-'''{{{-d -r}}}'''   Reattach a session and if necessary detach it first.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-d -R}}}'''   Reattach a session and if necessary detach or even create it first.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-d -RR}}}'''  Reattach a session and if necessary detach or create it. Use the first session if more than one session is available.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-D -r}}}'''   Reattach a session. If necessary detach and logout remotely first.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-D -R}}}'''   Attach here and now.  In detail this means: If a session is running, then reattach.  If necessary detach and logout remotely first.  If it was not running create it and notify the user.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-D -RR}}}'''  Attach here and now. Whatever that means, just do it.[[BR]]
-'''{{{-x}}}'''      Attach to a not detached screen session. (Multi display mode).[[BR]]

-Note: It is always a good idea to check the status of your sessions by means of "screen -list".

-The -x option is preferable, since it means you don't need to reattach your screen elsewhere if it was previously attached.

+To reattach a screen session, run {{{screen -dR}}}.  There are other options available, run {{{man screen}}} to learn more about them.
