Actually not a digraph but a digraph præfix.

I regularily use it like this:

^Au20AC (inserts an Euro sign), for example

This issue has been submitted originally in Debian by Thorsten Glaser <tg@mirbsd.de> under https://bugs.debian.org/831672 -- citing from there:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
cat >.screenrc
bind u digraph U+
^D
screen
^Au

… leads to…

[screen caught signal 11. (core dumped)]

Getting a backtrace is unfortunately not as easy, but
with sudo gdb screen I can at least get it interactively.

(gdb) bt
#0  0x00007fe709acde10 in __pause_nocancel () at ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:84
#1  0x0000556d56004524 in Attacher () at ../attacher.c:628
#2  0x0000556d55fdf2d0 in main (ac=0, av=<optimized out>) at ../screen.c:1275
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The crash seems to be architecture dependent and I can reproduce it on x86_64 (aka amd64) with:

  • 4.4.0 as packaged by Debian
  • built from git's HEAD of the screen-v4 branch
  • 4.3.1 built from git's v.4.3.1 tag
