This may not be helpful, but I wanted to point out that having the double status line down there is quite useful in letting you know that you are indeed in a screen session within another screen session. If you were to try to kill screen or use one of it's escape commands, you're going to have to double that escape to get it to the inner most screen and if you don't notice that you're logged into a screen session within another screen session, it's the outside screen session you're going to effect.
>From personal experience, the number of times I have been saved from doing something stupid by having that double status line down there, I personally decided it's actually a good thing not to toggle it off. I looked, but I did not find an escape sequence that you could send to turn off the hard status line in the outer window. I tried this to create a key to turn off the status line but it doesn't quite work, the status line comes right back: # ^A l (that's an ell) - loose status line register A "\001:hardstatus off\015" bind l process A # ^A g - get a status line register B "\001:hardstatus lastline\015" bind g process B _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
