Yet another flavor of solution, create set of files ~/.win0,
~/.win1 ... with the content like this:
echo "this is win0!"
cd $(cat ~/.win0.pwd)
export PROMPT_COMMAND="pwd > ~/.win0.pwd"
replace 0 by 1, 2, 3 etc
Create .screenrc:
screen -t win0
screen -t win1
...
at 0 stuff "source ~/.win0^j"
at 1 stuff "source ~/.win1^j"
...
With best regards, Anton
