I really love the hardstatus line in .screenrc :P. Just upgraded this machine to 8.3 too, so don't mind the title. (C-a A - OpenVMS-8.3) xD
Credits for the .screenrc hardstatus line go to Han:

escape ^Tt
Wallpaper is some image off flickr + GIMP + my favorite palindrome:
In girum imus nocte, ecce et consumimur igni.We enter the circle by night and we are consumed by the fire.
(Drawn like moths to a flame).

GNU Screen works just fine with that hardstatus line even on HP-UX systems. One thing I did though, was use:
env TERM=xterm-color screen
To start screen after ssh-ing in. After screen starts, you'll probably want:
TERM=vt100; export TERM
Also. You can put them in your profile. Using TERM=screen doesn't always work well.
Of course, you can just use TERM=dtterm, or even use dtterm, as done here via ssh -X to my AIX server :-).

As you can see, the AIX and HP-UX versions need a bit more work (or a fixed sized terminal in case of AIX):

Didn`t work in hp ux :-)
Works fine in BSD, Solaris, Linux, etc. You need to tune it a bit on HP-UX, but it you can get the same effect.
Added a screenshot of that .screenrc on HP-UX :P.
For a few seconds there I thought you had that desktop running on OpenVMS...
How can i run IBM-AIX under x86 ?
You can't (ancient 1.x version or Simics aside). And you don't want to either.
But in HP-UX we have TSM and it even has a screen saver :-P
aloha, vezi ca acel ecce e in plus in palindrom :P in rest, toate bune... mai putin chestia cu AIX pe x86 :)) are you kidding me?
