i use screen with rtorrent. generally it works great. i have the following cron 
jobs which stop and start rtorrent, due to ISP restrictions:
0
0 * * * screen -d -m rtorrent
 

0
16 * * * screen -r -X quit


i have an ftp server on the same host. if someone is uploading via ftp, i would 
like to stop/pause/throttle rtorrent at this time (got the monitoring daemon 
working). i would assume it follows the "screen -r -X s" format (to send a 
keypress "s" to the screen session), but nothing works for me!


i only need to send one keystroke to the session - "s" to throttle, and "x" to 
remove the throttle.


any help would be much appreciated...



 
Regards,
 
Dan Burt
