    ~/.screenrc where is it?

    i feel really stupid asking this one. I thought it was in /home/user/.screenrc but i do not see it I used the ls -a and nautilus with ctrl+h and do not see it any where. i was going to try a Linux journal article on how to use screen and customize it. all the article says it that the file is at ~/.screenrc

    If you don't have a screenrc file in your home folder, look for an example screenrc file here:

    /etc/screenrc

    ...or

    /etc/etcscreenrc

    Copy it to /home/user_name/screenrc then edit to suit your own needs.
