The following has been dropped from the default screenrc since 4.0.0...: # Set the hardstatus prop on gui terms to set the titlebar/icon title termcapinfo xterm*|rxvt*|kterm*|Eterm*|cygwin hs:ts=\E]0;:fs=\007:ds=\E]0;\007
Without this, hardstatus cannot be persuaded to display in the window titlebar (at least of mintty, I suspect rxvt as well). If you have hardstatus string ... in your .screenrc and it isn't working as it used to, add the above termcapinfo line to /etc/screenrc and you will start winning again. Andrew, any suggestion as to why this was removed? I don't see anything in ChangeLog or NEWS... [thanks for the new release!] ht -- Henry S.
