i always start up an empty ratpoison (and empty screens) so i'm not
having any practical experience of this, but i think i do have an idea
on how you could do.

of course we're speaking about doing in the .ratpoisonrc? the last
.screenrc was a typo?

maybe something like this could do the trick?

.ratpoisonrc:
"
exec gvim
exec xterm -title www -e "/usr/bin/lynx /usr/local/doc"
exec xterm -title sn
exec xterm -title bash1 -e su
exec xterm -title ssh -e ssh-agent bash
exec xterm -title bash2
exec xterm -title mutt -e mutt
select [
number 1
select www
number 2
select sn
number 3
select bash1
number 4
select ssh
number 5
select bash2
number 6
select mutt
number 7
"

a problem would be if not everything get's started before the selecting
and renumbering occurs. making splitting the commands up in two
.ratpoison & .ratpoison-renumber could be a solution if adding
execution of somethink like (sleep 2; ratpoison --command "source
.ratpoison-renumber") in the end.

do you btw have good reason for using lynx? isn't links better in all
aspects? it's faster, looks nicer & uses fewer resources.
