Follow-up Comment #2, bug #43744 (project screen): screen-4.00.04devel as seen on openSUSE behaves the way I expect.
$ screen -d -r RDV here is DEV [detached from 11420.RDV] screen -d -r RDVdev here is NOT DEV [detached from 11511.RDVdev] I am confused by the echo "here is NOT DEV" that you have in the screen session with dev in its name. So I cannot exactly see what behaviour you want. Please also peek at the output of screen -ls when you try to reproduce the issue. Another source of confusion might be multiple sessions with the same name, but different contents. Regarding the mentioned patch: The rationale in the introductory comment looks great to me. thumbs up. But seeing the bad filedescriptor error from WriteMessage indicates that the implementation is flawed. Thumbs down. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?43744> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
