Screen Command
==============
- Command: screen [opts] [n] [cmd [args]]
(`C-a c', `C-a C-c')
Establish a new window. The flow-control options (`-f', `-fn' and
`-fa'), title option (`-t'), login options (`-l' and `-ln') ,
terminal type option (`-T TERM'), the all-capability-flag (`-a')
and scrollback option (`-h NUM') may be specified with each
command. The option (`-M') turns monitoring on for this window.
The option (`-L') turns output logging on for this window. If an
optional number N in the range 0...9 is given, the window number N
is assigned to the newly created window (or, if this number is
already in-use, the next available number). If a command is
specified after `screen', this command (with the given arguments)
is started in the window; otherwise, a shell is created.
Screen has built in some functionality of `cu' and `telnet'.
Note:Window Types.
Thus, if your `.screenrc' contains the lines
# example for .screenrc:
screen 1
screen -fn -t foobar 2 -L telnet foobar
`screen' creates a shell window (in window #1) and a window with a
TELNET connection to the machine foobar (with no flow-control using the
title `foobar' in window #2) and will write a logfile `screenlog.2' of
the telnet session. If you do not include any `screen' commands in
your `.screenrc' file, then `screen' defaults to creating a single
shell window, number zero. When the initialization is completed,
`screen' switches to the last window specified in your .screenrc file
or, if none, it opens default window #0.
