Perhaps the 'at' command may help here?
at [identifier][#|*|%] command [args ... ]
Execute a command at other displays or windows as if it had
been entered there. "At" changes the context (the `current window'
or `current display' setting) of the command. If the first parameter
describes a non-unique context, the command will be executed
multiple times. If the first parameter is of the form
`identifier*' then identifier is matched against user names. The
command is executed once for each display of the selected user(s).
If the first parameter is of the form `identifier%' identifier
is matched against displays. Displays are named after the ttys
they attach. The prefix `/dev/' or `/dev/tty' may be omitted from
the identifier.
This talks a lot about a 'display', it actually means terminal...
I'd be interrested to hear, if this arcane screen command still work
properly.
cheers
and a happy new year,
Jw.
