$ screen --version -> "Screen version 4.00.03 (FAU) 23-Oct-06" $ uname -rims -> "Linux 2.6.29-ARCH i686 AuthenticAMD"
Recently I needed a screen command sequence more complex than the usual key "bind" or "stuff". I turned to "process [key]", as the man page said: "command can be used to bind multiple actions to a single key". I tried several combinations of "register ..." plus "eval ..." and "command ..." and "eval ...", but all they did were typing various strings into the window, but they didn't get executed as screen commands. Question: how do I use "register" and "process" to issue complex, runtime-built screen commands? And while we're at it: how do I quote the individual commands of an "eval"? Say I want to "register" several commands. I tried register r "eval 'sth1 arg1' 'sth2 arg2'" but I can't find a way to execute the contents of "r" properly. What's the difference between "eval", "command" and "process"? regards, clemens _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
