There's nothing that ever sets env vars to the screen size. However, if you use bash, it will set _shell_ variables, COLUMNS and LINES, automatically. This isn't something that screen does, but bash. Bash does _not_ export these by default, however; you'll need to do $ export COLUMNS LINES to get them into the environment. Of course, if you're not running bash, you may not have them at all; in which case you may need to parse them out of the screen-supplied TERMCAP (which, unlike the bash vars, can't be kept up-to-date when the window size changes). - -- Micah J.
