Put in your .screenrc file the following line:
termcap linux XT:true
Which tells screen that any terminal identifying itself as "linux" (which is the default setting for PuTTY) has XTerm capabilities. If your system uses terminfo instead of termcap, you can use the "terminfo" command instead. Or even better, you (and probably I [actually, that's what I'm doing now]) could use "termcapinfo" which covers all your bases so you may best move your zig.

You have to set the DISPLAY variable correctly. Check what it is before you re-enter the screen environment, and have the first thing you do once you get in is to export DISPLAY=whatever

Or at least that's how it should work in theory...
