My .screenrc file
I use screen quite a bit. Here is what I have put together for a custom screen session:
Here is a good screen reference: http://www.pixelbeat.org/lkdb/screen.html
# Turn off that annoying start up message startup_message off # Turn the even more annoying whole-screen-flash-on-tab-complete "feature" vbell off # I use control+a for beginning-of-line, this remaps it to the tick/tilda key escape `` # Bind tick+e to show the tick character since tick+tick is too convenience to toggle windows escape `e # Window list at the bottom. hostname, centered tabs and redmarked active windows: hardstatus alwayslastline hardstatus string '%{= kG}[ %{G}%H %{g}][%= %{= kw}%?%-Lw%?%{r}(%{W}%n*%f%t%?(%u)%?%{r})%{w}%?%+Lw%?%?%= %{g}][%{B} %d/%m %{W}%c %{g}]'

If you’re using a Debian-based OS and are interested in taking the .screenrc concept to the next level, check out a project called ‘byobu’.
Launchpad here: https://launchpad.net/byobu
The screenshots are pretty awesome, as well.

You have made an addict out of me Brie! I love byobu! I have already replaced it as my default screen ‘manager’. Good catch and thanks for the link!
