Source
======

 - Command: source file
     (none)
     Read and execute commands from file FILE. Source  commands may be
     nested to a maximum recursion level of ten. If FILE is not an
     absolute path and  screen  already  processes  a source command,
     the parent directory of the running source command file is used to
     search for the new command file  before screen's current directory.

     Note  that termcap/terminfo/termcapinfo commands only work at
     startup and reattach time, so they must be reached  via the
     default screenrc files to have an effect.
