How to reproduce (note: suppose C-a is the prefix):



  1. Spawn GNU Screen.

  2. Create a horizontal split (C-a S).

  3. Switch to the newly created split (C-a o).

  4. Spawn a shell (C-a c).

  5. Now exit from this shell. Type exit or hit Ctrl-D.

Observed behavior: the bottom split becomes empty, with no shell process, but it remains open.
Desired behavior: the bottom split automatically closes once the shell exits, and there's only one view (split) in screen.



Is there any configuration to add to ~/.screenrc to achieve the desired behavior?
