Hi Gereld, thanks for sending me your scripts. I haven't had time to go through it yet but it looks very complete.
My script is considerably less functional. As it stands it needs to be executed in each shell open in the screen session. The script will basically dump the pwd, a supplied title, and supplied command into a screenrc file -f will remove a previous file -t will set the title -l is used on the last shell to tell the file to source the main screenrc -- `command` is used to execute a command on startup I didn't really think about my options too much when I wrote this and most of the hard work could be done by just parsing the window list and some screen -X magic do it all a lot easier. Here it is anyway -----------------------------------8<--------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash ## if screen needs to be reopened and x window has been ## disconnected use this: ## in the first window run screen_open -f and run ## screen_open in the rest. In the last run ## screen_open -l. ## this will create a file $screen_open_file that contain ## the current pwds. when screen is run it will source ## this file and open all the window in the wanted dir ## if command is supplied with -c that will be run also ## ## screen_open [-f] [-l] [-t title] [-- command] ## last=0 command="" name=`basename $SHELL` nameset=0 screen_open_file='/tmp/screen_open' for f in $*; do if [[ $f = -f ]]; then echo "First window" [ -f $screen_open_file ] && rm $screen_open_file shift fi if [[ $f = -l ]]; then echo "Last window" last=1 shift fi if [[ $f = -t ]]; then echo "Window name" shift name=$1 shift fi done ## collect commands command=$* echo chdir `pwd` >> $screen_open_file echo screen -t $name $WINDOW >> $screen_open_file [ "$command" ] && echo stuff "'$command'^M">> $screen_open_file if [ $last -eq 1 ]; then echo chdir $HOME >> $screen_open_file echo source ~/.screenrc >> $screen_open_file fi _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
