 Posted: Sun Jul 23, 2006 1:15 pm Post subject: Automatically start of screen |
 |
|
Hi out there.
It's amazing that I had to wait for some years before I learned about the little smart program called screen. Sadly enough, I often forgot to start it when I entered a new bash session. So I wrote me a little program to help starting screen.
Put it in the last line of your .bashrc.
I want to share it with all you guru's. 
| Code: |
#!/bin/bash
ps -ef > /tmp/top.tmp
CPID=$$
LOOP=1
a=1
ISSCREENSTARTED=0
while [ "$LOOP" -eq "1" ]
do
GREPLINE="^[a-z0-9]*[[:space:]]+$CPID"
PIDLINE=`egrep $GREPLINE /tmp/top.tmp`
ISSCREEN=`echo "$PIDLINE" | grep " screen" | wc -l`
CUSER=`echo $PIDLINE| awk '{print $1}'`
if [ $CUSER == $USER ]
then
if [ "$ISSCREEN" -eq "$a" ]
then
ISSCREENSTARTED=1
LOOP=0
fi
CPPID=`echo $PIDLINE| awk '{print $3}'`
if [ "$CPPID" == "1" ]
then
LOOP=0
fi
else
LOOP=0
fi
CPID=$CPPID
done
if [ $ISSCREENSTARTED == "0" ]
then
echo "Do you NOT want to start screen? Press a letter to cancel screen."
TIMELIMIT=2
read -t $TIMELIMIT variable
if [ -z "$variable" ] # Is null?
then
echo "Timed out, no input yet."
screen
else
echo "Not starting screen"
fi
fi

I turn hardstatus on so that I get a status bar at the bottom of the terminal. It's like a tab view and it is a good reminder when screen is started. Add this to your .screenrc:
| Code: | hardstatus on
hardstatus alwayslastline
hardstatus string "%{.bW}%-w%{.rW}%n %t%{-}%+w %=%{..G} %H %{..Y} %m/%d %C%a" |

here's another fancy hardstatus line. It includes current load and the time:
| Code: | | hardstatus alwayslastline "%{= kr}%?%-Lw%?%{= kc}%n*%f %t%?(%u)%?%{= kr}%?%+Lw%? %=%{= kR}|%{= kc}%l%{= kR}|%{= kc}%c:%s%{= kR}| |
looks like this:
| Code: | | 0 zsh:~ 1 zsh:~ 2 zsh:~ 8- zsh:~ 9* zsh:~ |0.02 0.12 0.14|16:26:16| |
have fun,
pi3 |
