screenrc file ( author - anonmymous )
### I got tired of .screenrc's on the internet being so
### poorly commented... So being a good GNUbie I took matters
### into my own hands; and wrote this dotfile.

## Explanation of hardstatus line ##
# Ignore the ' marks if you use these examples for yourself
# Note that if you want to use the color brown under konsole
# You actually use bright yellow (%{Y}).
# Note the embeded space after the colon, I feel
# it just looks nicer with a blank between the
# text and console edge:
# '%{=b}%{G} Screen(s): '
# This prints the window listing in blue:
# '%{b}%w'
# This right-aligns what follows:
# '%='
# This displays the time (hours and minutes) in 12hr format
# and adds an AM/PM flag, in bold green:
# '%{G}%C%A'
# This displays the day of the week:
# '%D'
#This displays the date in Mon/day/year format:
# and again I embeded a space to give me one space
# between the text and console edge:
# '%M/%d/%Y '
# The resulting command give you a status line that
# looks like this:
# | Screen(s): 0* bash 5:30PM Fri, Jun/25/2004 |
# (The pipes indicate the edges of the xterm/console).
# Green text, time, and date; windows in blue:
hardstatus alwayslastline "%{=b}%{G} Screen(s) on %H: %{b}%w %=%{kG}%C%A %D, %M/%d/%Y "
