A Screen is a verbatim environment for displaying text that the user might see on a computer terminal. It is often used to display the results of a command.
Having less specific semantic overtones, Screen is often used wherever a verbatim presentation is desired, but the semantic of ProgramListing is inappropriate.
This element is displayed "verbatim"; whitespace and linebreaks within this element are significant. Screens are usually displayed in a fixed width font.
The InterfaceDefinition element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available in the content model of this element.
