Re: Spawning a process into a new Screen window programmatically

[Mark Caudill]

Yes. You can test this by starting screen, the running

        screen -t "TEST"

Then you should see a new window with the title TEST. The method to get
your process to run that command will obviously vary depending on the
language.
