Description:
Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes (typically interactive shells). Each virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in addition, several control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 2022 standards (e.g. insert/delete line and support for multiple character sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and a copy-and-paste mechanism that allows moving text regions between windows.

sysutils/screen*: Fix off-by-one buffer overflow

FreeBSD ncurses, as of c8b9c85ee5bb, does a strncpy() of 1024 bytes into
a 1023 byte buffer supplied by screen. This section of code in ncurses
was removed in 61f66a1f4403, and is not a problem since 14.0-RELEASE.
But it is still a problem in 13-STABLE.

Thank you to dim@ for detailed analysis and initial patch to
sysutils/screen. The same patch is also applied to sysutils/screen-devel
this commit.
