No, you don't need a .screenrc--at least not for any versions of screen 
I've used. But if you open a number of screen terminals like I do, the 
appropriate .screenrc can be really nice. I've got one, for example, that 
makes a sort of taskbar across the bottom of the terminal/console. There, 
it shows hostname at the lower left, time at the lower right, and has a 
section across the bottom middle that shows how many terminals are open 
and highlights the one you're currently in with red brackets. If anybody 
wants a copy of that I can just include it in-line in an e-mail.
