Technically the man page is correct, when speaking about the screen binary itself. The man page does not know that we ship a default /etc/screenrc that removes the CTRL-A CTRL-\ binding,
The section for the quit command actually gives a good reason to remove that binding. I'd suggest to drop CTRL-A CTRL-\ from the binary and simplify the man page and the default /etc/screenrc accordingly. cheers, JW- On Wed, Jan 8, 2020 at 12:34 AM anonymous <invalid.nore...@gnu.org> wrote: > URL: > <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57551> > > Summary: man page says C-a \ to quit, but C-a C-\ is what > actually does quit > Project: GNU Screen > Submitted by: None > Submitted on: Tue 07 Jan 2020 11:33:58 PM UTC > Category: Documentation > Severity: 3 - Normal > Priority: 5 - Normal > Status: None > Privacy: Public > Assigned to: None > Open/Closed: Open > Discussion Lock: Any > Release: 4.7.0 > Fixed Release: None > Planned Release: None > Work Required: None > > _______________________________________________________ > > Details: > > > This is different the e.g. help for which the documented C-a ? actually > works. > > It's also different than the 4.02.01 version where C-a \ worked. > > > > > _______________________________________________________ > > Reply to this item at: > > <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57551> > > _______________________________________________ > Message sent via Savannah > https://savannah.gnu.org/ > > >
