Login
=====

 - Command: deflogin state
     (none)
     Same as the `login' command except that the default setting for new
     windows is changed.  This defaults to `on' unless otherwise
     specified at compile time (Note: Installation). Both commands
     are only present when `screen' has been compiled with utmp support.

 - Command: login [state]
     (`C-a L')
     Adds or removes the entry in `/var/run/utmp' for the current
     window.  This controls whether or not the window is "logged in".
     In addition to this toggle, it is convenient to have "log in" and
     "log out" keys.  For instance, `bind I login on' and `bind O login
     off' will map these keys to be `C-a I' and `C-a O' (Note: Key
     Binding).
