Hello, I am a screen user and I use the remote commands (using -X ...) in particular with vim (I select some code and send it to a screen session to remotely execute it). Since I needed vertical splits, I got 4.1 version and my screen+vim combination did not work anymore. I checked out the code to see the changes and I see that now, the commands are parsed in the server, therefore splitting the incoming string with spaces and so on. Therefore, this: - X stuff "print "BOUM" " will be now interpreted by: -----> The command stuff with option print and value BOUM which is not the desired behaviour In the current version, screen can now only execute really simple things like -X stuff ls
I rollbacked these changes locally (from version 4.0.2) to restore the previous behaviour. Don't you think the previous behaviour was actually better?
