I don't use Screen so please correct me if i'm wrong but i don't think
this will work because the lash apps will not be part of an existing
Screen session so Screen will not be aware of them.

There is a program called retty that should do what you need. I
haven't tried it though.

What you really need is for lash to start these applications in a
terminal for you (is this possible?).
