Put this in your .screenrc:
escape `` (That's two backtick characters.)
Now you just hit " ` some-screen-key " to run screen commands.(No double
quotes obviously) C-a will now work properly for emacs.
You can use any two characters after the escape option. I use the
backtick because I have little use for it in day-to-day editing.
Have fun,
