Thank you for your answer



well, the problem is when, for example, I'm on a remote box via ssh, I

don't want to issue screen at the prompt, since this would start a screen

(or open a new window) on the remote box, and that's not really what I

want.



I'd need something like the 'exec' command but which would take the

environment from the shell of the current window, not the parent shell
