Yeah, I've tried that. I'm not really sure what that option is
supposed to do, but either this isn't it's purpose, or I'm doing
something wrong.
Furthermore, judging from the comment, what I would want is the "no
-A" version of screen. Except it doesn't actually seem to do what the
above fragment says, to quote:

Well for me it always seems to (if WS is present) resize to 80x24.
Regardless of the state of the session before it was detached (same
thing for a new session, with WS first thing screen does is resizes to
80x24).
Unfortunately I know nothing about termcap/terminfo...
Maybe some other setting is forcing the screen to 80x24?
Does anyone else have WS working?
