The lines in the sessionetc file are like:-
rxvt -e ssh -l chris -x halkidiki.areti.com & This is fine as long as it works but if the ssh fails for any reason the rxvt window disappears again and I lose any diagnostics. As the windows are started automatically I may well be on a different screen when they disappear. It would be much nicer if I could tell rxvt not to exit when the ssh does. As I said above a way to execute a command in a shell (as in 'ksh -c <command>' which leaves the shell running afterwards would be ideal. -- Chris Green ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
