Hi,

From the screen documentation, it looks like something similar to the
following should work, but it doesn't. If it is not already clear from the commands below, I want to send an arbitrary command to run in a detached screen instance. Any recipe that works would be appreciated. Please CC me on any reply.

                                                      Regards, Faheem

*********************************************************************

# create detached foo screen instance
fah...@merlin:~$ screen -dmS foo
fah...@merlin:~$ screen -ls
There is a screen on:
        30938.foo       (02/12/2010 06:39:33 PM)        (Detached)
1 Socket in /var/run/screen/S-faheem.

fah...@merlin:~$ screen -S foo -X emacs -nw somefile
fah...@merlin:~$ screen -r foo
# attaching to the foo screen session but nothing there
