Session Name
============

 - Command: sessionname [NAME]
     (none)
     Rename the current session. Note that for `screen -list' the name
     shows up with the process-id prepended. If the argument NAME is
     omitted, the name of this session is displayed.
     _Caution_: The `$STY' environment variable still reflects the old
     name. This may result in confusion.  The default is constructed
     from the tty and host names.
