I read your talk slides. Interesting, really. The '-X' switch is quite powerful to command a running screen session, but the biggest problem is that we can not get enough feedback through this interface. That's why we need scripting support. I also mentioned this in my previous post in the devel list. But you have done that more two years ago! :-) Rui _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
