I think we need more information about what it is you are calling "screens."
I can't tell from here what you are referring to. Is this a GUI app you're
talking about? A text-based app? More details, please.

There has been a small debate in the office over how "screens" should be
referenced in the documentation. I'm curious as to what others call what I
refer to as screens. The debate includes calling them screens, dialogs, and
windows. What is the norm or proper term and are the three terms above the
same?
