This is just a guess, but check the /etc/bashrc file on the remote host. In
there, there's usually a case that sets PROMPT_COMMAND when TERM=screen.
There could be something going on there. Also you might try playing the the
TERM and PROMPT_COMMAND variables.

Please don't remove multiuser! It's a useful feature. Allow the user to

Don't think you can tint the window, but you change the color of the
caption bar. Create a shell script (e.g. chcap.sh) like this and put it
somewhere in your PATH:
#!/bin/bash
# this is the caption I like to use. the %{kr} and %{kc}
# define the colors. See man screen for more details.
caption[0]
$ cat .bash_profile | sed -e '/^#/d' -e '/^$/d'
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/bin
export PATH
echo "this is a login shell"
$ cat .bashrc | sed -e '/^#/d' -e '/^$/d'
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc
fi
$ cat .screenrc
cat: .screenrc: No such fi
Hmm. "screen -s -/bin/bash" starts a login shell for me. I have:
$ screen --version
Screen version 4.01.00devel (GNU) 2-May-06
Did you try putting '-/bin/bash' in single quotes. That should escape the
dash.

As far as I know, screen behaves like any other process and inherits its
environment. So invoking screen as follows should work, if not, then you
have some other problems.

I'm often su'ing to different users. These users use the system bashrc which
sets the xterm's hardstatus to something like user@hostname:cwd. I would
like to have my window titles show their hardstatus line. Do you know how to
set the window title to the hardstatus?

Hi,
I would like to query the values of environment variable that are set in the
shells of other window in my screen session. For example, I would like to
know the value of $HOSTNAME in window 0 while in window 1.

It's not a screen command, but try the "script" tool. It's very useful for
that type of thing.

Take a look at Expect. It has macro-recording (autoexpect), and you
can control multiple screen sessions (or anything ttyish). It's my
goto for problems like this. Adding a convenience extension for screen
wouldn't be to bad. As John B. suggested, just "stuff" your commands

Try screen -S foo -X stuff "echo hello world^j"
You insert the ^j with the 'Ctrl-v Ctrl-j' key sequence in bash. It has to
be inside the quotes.

I think screen is looking for a tty named emacs. If you give screen a bogus
tty name it will work. Or you can pass another option. For example, try
'screen -D -R -t EMACS emacs'

I can't get the blanker command to work. I've tried several different

if I do this:

All I get is a blank screen. I thought the blanker command was supposed to
display the STDOUT of the blankerprg.
That works. Thanks. By the way, what does 'so' represent?
