sessionname

Default Keybindings

None.

Syntax

  • sessionname [name]

Description

Rename the current session. Note, that for “screen -list” the name shows up with the process-id prepended. If the argument name is omitted, the name of this session is displayed. Caution: Among other problems, the $STY environment variable will still reflect the old name. Use of this command is strongly discouraged. Use the -S command-line option if you need this feature. The default is constructed from the tty and host names.
