Screen User's Manual

12.3 Registers

Command: copy_reg [key]

(none)
Removed. Use readreg instead.

Command: ins_reg [key]

(none)
Removed. Use paste instead.

Command: process [key]

(none)
Stuff the contents of the specified register into the screen input queue. If no argument is given you are prompted for a register name. The text is parsed as if it had been typed in from the user's keyboard. This command can be used to bind multiple actions to a single key.

Command: register key string

(none)
Save the specified string to the register key.

Command: stuff string

(none)
Stuff the string string in the input buffer of the current window. This is like the paste command, but with much less overhead. You cannot paste large buffers with the stuff command. It is most useful for key bindings. See section 14.5 Bindkey.
