There are [other significant differences][mdif] between the old stable
distribution and this one. You’ll want to be familiar with that
documentation’s content before reading Oscar Vermeulen’s documentation,
as it still refers to his last release in December 2015.

## The systemd Unit File
Starting with release 2019.04.25, the PiDP-8/I software distribution is
based on [systemd][systemd], since Raspbian is now on its third
systemd-based release.

## Runtime Configuration
The `pidp8i` command may be configured by the optional `pidp8i.rc` file,
located by default in `/opt/pidp8i/etc/`. This is a Bourne shell script
which is sourced by `pidp8i` if it exists, and recognizes the following
variables:
<a id="rc-screen-manager"></a>
### SCREEN_MANAGER=screen
By default, pidp8i installs and uses [GNU screen(1)][gnuscreen] to
manage screen sessions. However, if you prefer to use [tmux(1)][tmux]
as a screen manager for the pidp8i session, you may set
`SCREEN_MANAGER=tmux`. Note that if you make this change, you are
responsible for installing tmux; on Raspbian, this is done by:
$ sudo apt-get install tmux
Switching between configured screen managers must be done while pidp8i
is stopped.
