Can I disable the message line when launching ``screen -RR``

Solution 1:

use the option

msgwait 0

in your .screenrc

Also, you may want to turn off the startup message as well

startup_message off

Solution 2:

It's open source, so I doubt these futures can be disabled with a single command argument. My answer would be:

Have a look at the source code, comment out the lines you don't need and compile screen for your machines.
