one thing i've noticed when using custom screenrcs and they chdir is that i have to give -c the *full path* to the screenrc i want. otherwise, when i detach and later try to reattach, i get an error saying "relative/path/to/rc not found" and screen dies.

try in .screenrc

chdir ~/enlace
screen -t enlace
chdir  'other/dir'
screen -t other_dir

You can also put this into a separate file and source it from the main
.screenrc using

source 'alternate.screenrc

I have different .screenrc's for different development environments
(which I start up using screen -c .screenrc_foo). For each terminal I
create in .screenrc, how do I change directories, so each terminal
starts in the directory I specify?

I've tried lines like this, but I'm getting errors:

screen -t "enlace" cd ~/enlace
screen -t "enlace2" cdenlace.sh

(where cdenlace.sh is in my path, and contains the command "cd
~/enlace").
