Details:

Use case: I start up a custom shell script in screen via incron. I would like
to log those screens to some destination other than the default
`screenlog.%n`. The command `logfile filename` does what I want, but I cannot
specify it via the command line.

where '$#' is the name of a newly changed file I have:

    screen -d -m -L -S $# addjob.sh $#

and would like to do

    screen -d -m -L -logfile ~/log/$#.log -S $# addjob.sh $#

or something.

Thank you for your consideration!

Florian
