23:35 laz> man, this is definitely FAQ material
23:35 SirFunk> :-P
23:35 laz> what you want to do is be able to still login when screen is hosed
      for one reason or another
23:36 SirFunk> right
23:36 laz> and you only wwant to exec screen from an interactive shell
23:36 SirFunk> ok
23:37 laz> for the interactive shell thing, you can check for PS1 being set
23:37 laz> for safety, you can check that an env var is empty
23:38 laz> if [ -z "$STY" -a -n "$PS1" -a -z "$BASHME" ]; then
23:38 laz>     exec screen -A -x -RR 
23:38 laz> fi
23:38 laz> something like that should work (I rewrite that if statement every
      time somebody asks this q in the channel ;)
23:38 SirFunk> hehe :)
23:42 SirFunk> hey
23:42 laz> it lets you set BASHME=1 to get bash always
23:42 laz> so you'd ssh -t host "BASHME=1 /bin/bash"
23:42 laz> and it wouldn't try to launch screen
23:42 laz> those screen options will give you a single screen session that is
      multi-attached
23:43 laz> dunno if that's your intent or not, you could tweak em
23:43 SirFunk> what is multiattached?
23:43 laz> if you login twice, you are connected to teh same screen session
23:44 SirFunk> cool!
23:44 SirFunk> :)
23:44 SirFunk> i wanted that
23:44 laz> so you can open the same screen window in 2 xterms at the same time
23:44 SirFunk> haha
23:44 SirFunk> that's cool
23:44 SirFunk> and if i type in one it shows in the other :)
23:44 laz> yah
