I looked around for a while to find a solution to this and could not. Any
help at all would be greatly appreciated.
I use screen on Linux to access a large number of Unix servers. Some of
the terminal applications that I use on these Unix servers don't
recognize a TERM value of 'screen', so I usually have to set that
environment variable to 'vt100' after logging in.
I was wondering if it was possible to set this environment variable from
my .screenrc file so I can eliminate one more thing that I have to type
every time that I log into a server.
Here's what my current .screenrc file looks like:
# The vt100 description does not mention "dl". *sigh*
termcapinfo vt100 dl=5\E[M
# turn sending of screen messages to hardstatus off
hardstatus off
# Set the hardstatus prop on gui terms to set the titlebar/icon title
termcapinfo xterm*|rxvt*|kterm*|Eterm*
hs:ts=\E]0;:fs=\007:ds=\E]0;\007 # use this for the hard status string
hardstatus string "%h%? users: %u%?"
caption always
# shell -$SHELL
setenv TERM vt100
screen -t server0 0 ssh server0
screen -t server1 1 ssh server1
screen -t servern 3 ssh servern
The 'setenv' command sets the first server's TERM value to vt100, but all
of the other servers use a TERM value of screen. I also tried placing
that setenv command before ever 'screen' line like this:
setenv TERM vt100
screen -t server0 0 ssh server0
setenv TERM vt100
screen -t server1 1 ssh server1
setenv TERM vt100
screen -t servern 3 ssh servern
...but this didn't have any affect.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
