.screenrc entries to show always the windows in bottom


I added following to my .screenrc
Code:
caption always “%H %c | %-w%{=}%n-%t%{-}%+w”
but when I execute screen then only for some initial seconds I can see
the window name and some other details in bottom.
How can I set it to permanently view?
There is one more file .screen
which has
Code:
hardstatus alwayslastline
In my .screenrc what should I modify?

Where is the .screen file located?

And here is a good reference:

http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/560

This explains a lot of information in regards to what you are trying to do.

Cheers,

Josh

No problem, and thanks to you too. I have never heard about that, so once I get home on sunday, I'm going to try that out. I have always used screen, and I frequently use it.
