Here's what I use:
hardstatus string "screen %n (%t)%? [%h]%?"
caption always '%{yb} %H %{k}|%L=%= %{w}%?%-Lw%45L>%?%{=b bR}[%{W}%n%f
%t%?(%u)%?%{=b bR}]%{= bw}%?%+Lw%?%?%=%-30= %{k}|%{Y}%l%{k}|%{=b C}
%m/%d %c %{W}'
The hardstatus line sets mintty's title bar; the caption line sets the
bottom row of the terminal. (I[m thinking of removing the load info (the
|%{Y}%l%{k}| bit) from the cygwin version, but I use the same .screenrc
on linux.
