Yes, a confusing thing that the newer version does but the older version did not do. I wish it went back to the older configuration. It makes logging into other systems which don't have screen installed a problem. You have two options. You can start up screen with -T $TERM. screen -T $TERM You can set 'term' to your prefered terminal type in your ~/.screenrc file. There is no best answer. You may prefer ansi, vt100, xterm, or another type of terminal. echo 'term ansi' >> ~/.screenrc Bob
