(i was searching for "socket" in the manual, which explains why i didn't find it.) btw, the note in the manual _Caution_: The `$STY' environment variable still reflects the old name. This may result in confusion. The default is constructed from the tty and host names. could be a little clearer. if i understand correctly, it refers to STY in existing processes under that screen--new processes (e.g. new tabs) seem to get the new session name. -- Aaron Davies aaron.dav...@gmail.com
