Is there a way to get the screen program to disable the auto fit feature? I find screen can be very helpful when admining a system from multiple locations. I use screen in a way that it contains multiple windows and while being attached to multiple virtual terminals. I recently started working on a script that will start screen detached in the background. The script creates a set of labeled windows some of which will have programs running inside.
The problem I am running into now more often than in the past is, I sometimes access it from terms with different geometry, causing important parts of the window to be hidden. This happens because sometimes an individual windows get multiply attached. As it happens, Screen will automatically fit the window to the first terminal that attaches to it. I have found that I can use the fit command to help out and set it to match the smaller terminal geometry. Rather than a piecemeal solution, I would rather pick a size (80x25) and have all windows stay at that size. Any term with a larger display would have a some "dead space", but all attached terminals with at least 80x25 would be able to display the whole workspace. I searched the man page but I did not see the right command. Any help would be appreciated. ____________________________________________________________ Send any screenshot to your friends in seconds...
