Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): screen-4.4.0 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. screen -T screen 2. edit .screenrc, set "term screen" 3. Actual results: >env|grep TERM TERM=screen.xterm-256color Expected results: >env|grep TERM TERM=screen _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?48848> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
