Is there a way to change the socket directory to $HOME/.screen? The

export SCREENDIR=$HOME/.screen
in your shell's startup... or wrap screen in a quick shell script that
sets the environment.
I've just finished slapping myself for not RTFM'ing. Thanks Will and
Adam. Sorry for the noise.
why do you want to change it? i know tmpcleaners have a tendency to remove
sockets from under /tmp, but you can always get them back with
pkill -CHLD screen
