Re: screen crl-a c question

[Matt Mensch]

You have a typo in your command:

from screen --help:

-s shell      Shell to execute rather than $SHELL.
-S sockname   Name this session <pid>.sockname instead of <pid>.<tty>.<host>.


You have -s, but you mean -S.  You're trying to execute a shell named "A."
