Yes, I fount it out bit later; and I now recall messing around with that option while reading screen man page. Since I had no idea what 'alternate screen' meant, I didn't know what I was doing then. Maybe it's worth putting in the man page that alternate screen means terminal save/restore. It'd be helpful for unwary, like me then. Thanks for your reply. -- Jeenu _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
