gnu screen is a cool tool, I normally use it for persisting shell sessions running over ssh when moving between workstations or sites. However screen also has tab like functionality which I've been looking at using after fire up screen and then use the follow to create and navigate between tabs:
Ctrl+a c: create a window
Ctrl+a n: next window
Ctrl+a p: previous window
Ctrl+a ": list all windows
Ctrl+a A: name a window
Ctrl+a k: close (kill) a window
Ctrl+a number: jump to a window
What's even better is that screen has console based cut and paste! Here's how you use it:
Ctrl+a [: enter copy mode (scrollback)
In copy mode, you can use the cursor keys (or vi navigation keys if you like) to move around. Press space to begin a selection and space again to end it.
Ctrl+a ]: paste text from buffer.
