Erm, worksforme. Please try to reproduce again and make sure you have no typos or something in the command :). Also, note that screen 0 != screen 1. No, still doesn't work. I am typing exactly: ":bindkey -k k1 select 1" - are you? Note that not all terminals pass the key to screen as they should. However, in both linux tty and (some versions of) xterm this works as expected (unlike eg. konsole, which apparently catches the key or sends wrong key sequence (it is supposed to act like xterm)). I haven't tried in gnome-terminal. However, you are right in that the xterm as shipped with fedora core causes problems with this. Could you please at least confirm this works in a linux tty so we can rule out other causes (apart from the suspected terminal interaction). Maybe you could try with different TERM settings, but i didn't generate much success either. It could be either terminfo or the terminals themselves that are at fault though. > Could you please at least confirm this works in a linux

Yes, it does work when I do ctrl+alt+f1 and try it there.
It's feature of your KDE/Gnome/Xfce/... I'm using Xfce with multi-gnome. After I pressed F1, it'll open help in firefox - help is for current program, in this case help for screen. So you could change your button shortcuts. It still doesn't work in xterm, and I don't see any keyboard shortcut for F1 in gnome-control-center. Please consider this bug as only about xterm since the other cases have been explained.

Screen is useful for users who telnet into a machine or are connected via a dumb terminal, but want to use more than just one login. Install the screen package if you need a screen manager that can support multiple logins on one terminal. The default config was using wrong sequences for xterm's F1-F4, should be fixed in screen-4.0.3-10.fc9. |
