Commands
********

   A command in `screen' can either be bound to a key, invoked from a
screenrc file, or called from the `colon' prompt (Note:
Customization).  As of version 3.3, all commands can be bound to
keys, although some may be less useful than others.  For a number of
real life working examples of the most important commands see the files
`etc/screenrc' and `etc/etcscreenrc' of your screen distribution.

   In this manual, a command definition looks like this:

- Command: command [-n] ARG1 [ARG2] ...
     (KEYBINDINGS)
     This command does something, but I can't remember what.

   An argument in square brackets (`[]') is optional.  Many commands
take an argument of `on' or `off', which is indicated as STATE in the
definition.
