screen

I have the following in my .screenrc file

hardstatus string '%{= kw}[%{r} %d/%m/%Y %C %A %{w}] [%= %{= kw}%-Lw%{= kW}%{r}%n:%t%?%?%{= kw}%?%+Lw%?%?%= ] [ %{r}%l%{w} ]%{w}%{w}'

and the statusbar shows up as

[ 30/12/2010  8:24 PM ] [                                       0$ bash  1-$ bash  2:bash                                        ] [ 0.00 0.03 0.04 ]

I want it like this instead:

[ 30/12/2010  8:24 PM ] [                                       0:bash  1:bash  2:bash                                        ] [ 0.00 0.03 0.04 ]
