# First of all, I really don't like C-a to be my key combination, since
# I use it a lot to get the same effect as the `Home' key. So, I choose
# C-\ as my preferred shortcut key by adding this line to my ~/.screenrc.

#escape \034\034
#escape ^Zz
#escape ^ww

# (If you are wondering, \034 is the key sequence C-\ in octal. Please
# read the documentation for `escape' in the screen man page to find out
# how I arrived at that).
