Regrettably, I can't get it to work. This is the command I used: su -c "screen -S srcds -X eval 'stuff sm_csay test\015'" cc-server
Any idea why it isn't working? No error message, and the screen name is correct, but when I look at the console, there is nothing there. Drek David Parker wrote: > Glad it helped.
