Public bug reported:
The screen package needs to change the -L switch feature so that a
screenlog.0 filename can be given a specific directory/filename output
such as doing:
screen -L /tmp/screenlog.1 (2, 3, etc)
Otherwise in order to run multiple screens with -L they each have to be
executed from different directories, because they'd all output to the
same screenlog.0 file.
The only alternative workaround to this is doing:
screen -dmS workspace | tee screen.log
or
screen -dmS workspace && screen -S workspace -X stuff $'<command> | tee
screen.log\n'
Conclusion, To recode the -L switch to allow to explicitly specify custom
filename/directory location for screenlog.0 output ?
