Re: screen: how to toggle between 3 windows?

thanks folks.
Jostein's method is clear but that is no what I wanted, I just need a c-a
c-a equivalent , but switching between the last 2 windows instead of 1.

Wes's solution looks more subtle , but I don't get the exact config to make
it happen...can you paste the config for me to test?

thanks!
