Hi! I have the following line in my .screenrc:
termcapinfo xterm*|rxvt*|kterm*|Eterm* 'hs:ts=\E]0;:fs=\007:ds=\E]0;\007' This line makes screen display the permanent hardstatus in my terminal emulator's (Gnome Terminal) title bar. This is great since I always need to be able to see at a glance the key context information displayed in the hardstatus: session name, and title and index of my current window. The problem is that incoming screen messages (e.g. "Bell in window 1", "Copy mode aborted") they are posted over (i.e. replace) the contents of the title bar. So if I abort copy mode and look in my title bar, I have to wait several seconds for the message to fade and context information to be displayed again. Another problem is that I tend not to see messages in the title bar, as my attention is normally focused on the terminal window. So the ideal solution would be displaying the context information in the title bar, permanently, while messages are displayed in the terminal window (by default in Gnome Terminal they appear in the last line, with a gray background). A bit less ideal, but still nice solution would be to display the message *after* the context information in the hardstatus line (in the title bar), such that the title bar looks like: <sessionname> : <window name> <window index> : <last message posted> Is there a way to implement those solutions?
