If you've spent hours on a task, such as debugging an application, it can be maddening to lose your work in an instant. This article shows you how to keep your shell and your work alive, even across multiple sessions and dropped connections using GNU Screen. Screen is a remarkable tool that you will quickly find invaluable in any work you perform on the command line. In fact, use it once, and you will wonder how you ever lived without it.

Compile it yourself? it should work on Linux.. BSD.. any Unix worth using.
For debian specifically, google relieved this:

It's outdated though, just compile it yourself.
