Sure, when the terminal session that's sending the notifications is on my Mac, but I'm often SSHed into half a dozen different hosts running other OSes. I've seen references online to hacks where people use a Perl module on, say, a Linux box to communicate with Growl, but then I have to either maintain a SSH tunnel back from every host I connect to, or leave a port wide open to receive growl notifications from any host, which, while it would bring back some fun memories of computer lab pranks involving Windows machines and NET SEND, wouldn't be very secure or productive. IMHO, the beauty of the control sequence solution is that it could be used on any host I'm logged into, and all it would require would be screen passing on the control sequence unaltered, or, to support background notifications, picking up the control sequence from a background screen window and replaying it to the terminal app. Unless I'm missing something... _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
