### Automatic `screen` startup in `.zshrc`

To automatically start `screen` in a new terminal window using `.zshrc`, add the following code to your `.zshrc` file:

```zsh
if [[ -z $STY ]]; then
autoload -Uz add-zsh-hook
add-zsh-hook -U precmd () {
if [[ -z $STY ]]; then
screen
fi
}
fi
```

Additionally, add the following to your `~/.screenrc` file to disable the startup message:

```
startup_message off
```
