screen complements a terminal emulator, because it does simultaneously
more and less than one.

GNU Screen is a free terminal multiplexer that allows a user to access
multiple separate terminal sessions inside a single terminal window or
remote terminal session. It is useful for dealing with multiple programs
from the command line, and for separating programs from the shell that
started the program.
Features
Persistence
Similar to VNC, GNU Screen allows the user to start applications
from one computer, and then reconnect from a different computer
and continue using the same application without having to
restart it.
Multiple windows
Multiple terminal sessions can be created, each of which usually
runs a single application.
Session Sharing
Screen allows multiple computers to connect to the same session
at once, allowing collaboration between multiple users.
If that doesn't answer the question, install it and follow this guide:
