Hi -- I'm using screen within a Makefile to launch jobs on separate screens. It works great except that when I invoke screen within a screen session it creates another screen and immediately returns (as expected). But, what I really want is some way for the invoked screen to only return after the new process ends or some way to figure out the PID of the new process so that the Makefile that called it can loop doing "kill 0", effectively waiting for it to die.
I'm kind of stumped on how to do this and am all googled-out so any help or ideas of things to try would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom ____________________________________________________________________________________ Get your own web address. Have a HUGE year through Yahoo!
