Hey all, I've currently got my prompt set like so:

if ($TERM == "screen") then
#alias precmd    'printf "\033%s%s %s\033\\" "k" "tcsh" "[$HOST]"'
set prompt="%{\ek%}tcsh [$HOST] %{\e\\%}\%"
alias postcmd 'printf "\033%s%s %s %s\033\\" "k" "\!#:0" "\!#:$" "[$HOST]"'
endif

what I notice, however, is that there's some "oddness" that the screen manpage makes vague allusions to. Specifically, when I backspace, everything gets corrupted, but only some of the time.

I seem to recall it having to do with your prompt being a multiple-of-8-characters.

Does any of this make sense or am I shooting in the dark?
