Follow-up Comment #3, bug #51562 (project screen): I'm experiencing the same issues: resuming matches a first found name for which the one specified in command line is prefix. For example, BC2 can be attached for "screen -x BC". This is reproduced at: FreeBSD 10.3 with "Screen version 4.03.01 (GNU) 28-Jun-15"; CentOS 7 with "Screen version 4.01.00devel (GNU) 2-May-06"; Ubuntu 14.04 with the same version; FreeBSD 10.3 with "Screen version 4.05.00 (GNU) 10-Dec-16". Example for the latter one:
$ screen -ls There is a screen on: 11293.main (Attached) 1 Socket in /tmp/screens/S-netch. If I run "screen -x m", it attaches that "main". _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51562> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
