Force GNU screen to reflow to current terminal width on reattach? I would like to force GNU screen to reflow to the existing terminal width when I reattach a session. It seems to me this worked properly before I upgraded a machine to CentOS 6, but I cannot figure out how to restore it. (`TERM=xterm`) Whenever I reattach a session, regardless of state when I detached it, it launches at 80 columns, resizing my terminal (PuTTY, in this case) along with it. I'm launching & reattaching with: screen -aA -R <session> My .screenrc contains only the following, and a few irrelevant key bindings: term xterm defscrollback 10000 # status line at the bottom hardstatus on hardstatus alwayslastline hardstatus string "${-}%{.0c}%-w%{.y0}%f%n %t%{-}%+w %=%{..G}[%H] %{..Y} %D %M %d, %Y %c | Load: %l" caption splitonly "%{.yK}%3n t" caption string "%{.c0}%3n %t" vbell off # Fix fullscreen programs altscreen on

after you reattach a `ctrl-a F` runs the "fit" command to resize the current window. if you reattach using the `-A` option it should resize all windows when you reattach. Are there others still attached to the screen session when you are attaching? For instance, are you having to use -x to reattach instead of -r? you can detach others when you reattach with "screen -D -r" instead of "screen -x", and I'd expect this to automatically refit windows.
