Thanks for your kindly explain😊. Now I have synced with upstream and ready for compiler my own screen, my current HEAD is "commit 854c3673bb69a07d0ebaa52c2cd31eebaeaaca2c". But the code seems changed a lot, I can't find the code location you mentioned now. So could you please give me some advice base on my newer code?

You could replace AddWindows here with your own version: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/tree/src/screen.c?h=screen-v4#n2708 AddWindows definition: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/screen.git/tree/src/process.c?h=screen-v4#n5512 Another alternative I guess is to use callbacks to print window list, but I don't have such script at hand. You could use screen -Q windows and then format it into your desired format, while callback would feed it into screen. Problem with it would be that, you wouldn't get instand feedback onto your window situation.
