I used to have trouble with something similar.  I don't remember the
nuts and bolts off the top of my head, but the man page should get you
there.  What I did was to rig up my .screenrc file so that it had a
command to read a text file into one of the paste buffers, then when I
wanted to use it, I just simply played that paste buffer and it did
exactly what I wanted.

I believe the specific issue was that I couldn't get screen to use the
'stuff' command with a carriage return, so that's why I went the paste
buffer route.
