Even if without virtual scrollbars (i guess that could b

Try disabling that feature and see if that helps.

Thanks, this is even closer. z is being set, but it outputs something to
the screen which does go away
When I reattach to screen, the SSH_AUTH_SOCK is wrong.
I often ssh in and run screen simultaneously on a laptop and desktop. So I
can’t use the trick of symlinking something to /tmp/ssh-xx.

I use Screen in PuTTY. I have a hard status line set. When I scroll up the
PuTTY window, the hard status line scrolls off the bottom of the screen.
I was wondering, is there some way to stop this such that the hard status line
always stuck at the bottom of the window regardless of the position
default!
And, if anyone else has a better way of redrawing a screen's
scrollback buffer than this, please post! I spent ages working this
out. The only thing it does not redraw is the color, though I have
'paste font' enabled.
Hope this helps!

There is a possible way to use ctrl-; in screen, you would first need to
bind ctrl-; to a real ascii (perhaps even a multibyte unicode character
would work). You would do this in your local window system. It's been a
while since I did this but in X it was something like setxkbmap. In

understand iTerm resizes itself accordingly whereas Putty does not, or

It would be nice if those lines could be filled offscreen somehow. As in
first the visible area was redrawn then the copy area so the user might not
notice.

You need the \[ and \] to tell bash not to count those characters as
being displayed on the line, otherwise, it messes up the display when
you start wrapping long input lines.
ESC_ gets you into the status line and ESC\ gets out out.

This may not be helpful, but I wanted to point out that having the
double status line down there is quite useful in letting you know that
you are indeed in a screen session within another screen session. If
you were to try to kill screen or use one of it's escape commands,
you're going to have to
/cat somefile. Note: The ^[ is an escape
character, not ^ followed by [ (there are 2 escapes in that line
above), but the [ without the ^ before it is a single [. I realize
that's a bit confusing to look at.
