Re: tips on using "screen"?

[Zenaan Harkness <zen@freedbms.net>]

Can I make screen 'copy' its output into xterms scrollback buffer?

I find the following lines in my .screenrc:

---
# To get screen to add lines to xterm's scrollback buffer, uncomment the
# following termcapinfo line which tells xterm to use the normal screen
buffer
# (which has scrollback), not the alternate screen buffer.
#
termcapinfo xterm|xterms|xs|rxvt ti@:te@
---

I've tried commenting out that line, and having it uncommented, to no
avail.

and:
$ echo $TERM
xterm-debian
