emacs within screen

[alberto besana]

When I launch emacs from screen some features like ctrl+<arrows> and
comment colouring no longer work.

My guess is that screen evilly interact on how emacs use termcap.


EVIRONMENT VARIABLEs
- emacs works fine when (no screen)
TERM = xterm
TERMCAP unset

- bad behaviour
TERM = screen
TERMCAP = SC|screen|VT 100/ANSI X3.64 virtual terminal:\

I've got a bad behaviour (missing ctrl+d and End key) even when I
cheat TERM = xterm and TERMCAP unset after entering screen.

As you can guess it's very annoying.

Any advice?
Thank you, Alberto
