Color escape codes changed in screen v5. In screen v4, to get bold green text
on a black background in the caption line, I used:
%{.kG}
but in v5 this became:
%{b2;0}
I don't know why they changed. You will have to read about "String Escapes" in
the man page or info for screen v5. This is kind of a painful part of screen
configuration, but maybe the above example will get you started.
Good luck, Andrew
