The brief answer to your question is yes, there's a way. I've seen epic (IRC program) do exactly this--open multiple screen windows for a single epic process. What I don't know is how it was done. I suspect it would mean messing with screen at a moderately low level. epic's behavior with this was always a bit buggy, but the docs said that all multiwindow stuff was buggy; it might not have had anything to do with the screen interface. -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- In theory there's no difference between theory and practice, but in practice... ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
