Hi everybody!
I have produced this patch to be able to quickly switch to a window, by
entering part of its name;
I have called this function the "search" function;

This is useful for users like me, who like to make their shell
automatically change screen windows' titles with escape sequences, to
reflect the command being run at the moment;

Example usage:
<userinput> ^A-/
<screen>    "Search: "
<userinput> file.c

Alternatice:
<userinput> ^A-:
<userinput> search file.c

  screen switches to the window called:
  /home/buccia [ vim /home/buccia/c0de/file.c ]


This diff is against 4.0.2;
Apply with:
  patch -p1 < screen_search.patch

Please anybody let me know if you find this useful ;)

bye,
