Re: how to cd in .screenrc?

[Kenichi Nakamura]

one thing i've noticed when using custom screenrcs and they chdir is  
that i have to give -c the *full path* to the screenrc i want.   
otherwise, when i detach and later try to reattach, i get an error  
saying "relative/path/to/rc not found" and screen dies.
