So put 'screen -dRR' in your .login (or whatever) file. That will reattach to an existing screen session if there is one (if there's more than one it picks the first one) and creates a new session otherwise. If the session is attached alsewhere, it will detach the other location. (If you want multi attach just use 'screen -xRR' instead.) -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- If you ever build a device to transfer the hero's energy into you, make sure it cannot operate in reverse. -- Evil Overlord's Handbook, entry 180 ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
