Thanks, I think.. ;-) Would you be so kind to give me some examples on how to do that? I've never done session detaching in screen. Ask on the list, as I know there are some subscribers who do work detaching sessions in screen. Rankin might be one..but in any event, asking on list is always the best way to get answers.
Well, I did ask in the list, but it seems like everyone is busy bitching at Novell about the upcoming 11.. Hehe..
There was a big fiasco with one of the early 10.x releases, and we don't want to see it repeated again...especially when the "light at the end of the tunnel" is making suspicious a familiar choo-choo-choo-choo sound and occasional loud whistle.
The entire thing is completely done in scripts with no human interaction, so I can't figure out how to make the script do this "by itself". The only way I've found is to actually interact with it. That's generally not difficult. It's been almost 20 years since I used screen, but if I remember correctly, Ctrl-P is the magic key-stroke ;-)
Ctrl-a, but that's just not what I want, since I want a script to make the input to the detached screen.. ;-)
I don't think you can do do interactive stuff with stdin on a detached screen... you'll have to re-attach it to a running instance of screen.
Oh well, I'll do some more googling while I wait for some guru to reply..
Thanks, and have a great week! Anders.
