Newer versions of screen let you split vertically and there's been a patch around for older versions for quite a few years.

Yeah, I was doing vertical splits in screen back on Ubuntu Dapper. It took a surprisingly long time for upstream screen to accept the patches, but distros have commonly included the patches for vertical splits since before I first used screen.
