Description:
If the user changes escape keys to keys other than the defaults,
type escape key twice (switch bwteeen the last two screens) will
not work if you put it in the .screenrc file.
Example:
You can change default escape keys in 2 ways:
method 1:
$ screen -exy <-- this works
method 2:
$ echo 'escape xy' >> ~/.screenrc
$ screen <-- not this one
Reason:
Function InitKeytab() use Esc as index which might be changed by
ReadRc(). Move it after ReadRc() solve this problem.
Scope: This bug exists for both versions 1.1 and 2.0a.
