Simple screen script that create multiple windows and executing given cmd
Create multiple windows in a screen session. It read a file filled with commands that need to be executed in a screen session without human intervention.
If a main command (like screen) or not installed, the script will try to install it using apt-get and sudo, so you need to make sure you have admin access.
screen -S $NAME -p $n -X stuff "$cmd
"
The quotes on the next line need to be there in order to make sure the command is executed.
For now, there is only two possibles options.
To create a new session with a specific name
./screenCreator.sh -n NAME
To execute one or multiple commands in a screen session (this will create multiple windows)
./screenCreator.sh -f FILE
They can also be mixed
./screenCreator.sh -n NAME -f FILE
In the configuration file, you add line by line all the commands you want to execute.
