I have a bit of perl code that I'm trying to make work:

sub DB::get_fork_TTY {

   open my $SCREEN, qq{&3>1 screen -t 'Child $$' sh -c "tty &1>3 ; sleep
1000000" |}
     or return '';

   my $tty = <$SCREEN>;

   return $tty;
}

I'm getting bad file descriptor errors, so I'm assuming screen is
cleaning up what it hands to it's children.  Which makes sense.

I want to avoid going the tmp file route if at all possible.  Is there a
way I can echo tty's output so that I can grab it from a filehandle?

I've tried a number of different methods.

Any pointers?



What exactly are you trying to accomplish with your script?
