This is what I do from a bash script the ` and " are significant.
Once I have started a detatched session using
/usr/bin/screen -A -d -m -S OPS
then I can send commands to it using
screen -S OPS -p 0 -X eval 'stuff "\015"'
this put just a newline in
whereas this sets the term value within the detatched session
screen -S OPS -p 0 -X eval 'stuff "export TERM=xterm\015"'
Hope this helps/
