btw... does the git-screen have support for using the session-name for
sourcing different configs? like 'source .screenrc-$SESSIONNAME' or
some such?
I don't think that's possible. When you are specifying the session name,
wouldn't it make sense to specify the config filename in there too? (or
perhaps create a shell wrapper/alias to do it for you?) For example,
screen.sh:
#!/bin/sh
screen -c .screenrc-$1 -S $@
with this script, you could do 'screen.sh sessionname --other-params'
Or am I missing something?
Well, I have one .screenrc in which i have 'source .screenrc-$SESSION'.
Typically such a file contains which programs i want to start in that
session or other spesific setup. Now i have to use a wrapper to set the
SESSION-variable before i start screen, but it would be more convenient if
screen suppled a way to do that without having to use such a wrapper.
