remap gnu screen “other” window selection

Question

In my .screenrc file, I have:

escape \034\034

This remaps ^a to ^\. This works for switching windows when specifying the window number, such as ^\0 or ^\1 but the 'other' command is not available, as seen by showing the help (:help). (The 'other' command is ^a,^a by default, and switches to the last used window.) How do I get the "other" command back while keeping my remapped escape key?

Answer 1

You should rebind it:

bind \034 other
