Hi all, Just wanted to drop a note to this list to let you guys know about a project I just released, that some might find useful -- essentially, it lets you detach/reattach running X programs, just like screen lets you detach/reattach programs in the terminal.
It's a bit rough, but works; more details available in the README: http://partiwm.org/browser/README.xpra or you can just grab the source and get to it: http://partiwm.org/static/downloads/parti-all-0.0.3.tar.gz I wrote it because I use screen all the time for running R on a shared cluster -- it's *awesome* to be able to fire off a 12 hour data analysis job and come back later to work with the results interactively. But that convenience totally breaks down as soon as I need to plot something graphically, so... now I run xpra to provide a $DISPLAY for my screen session. Two great tastes! </spam> -- Nathaniel -- Electrons find their paths in subtle ways. _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
