Yes, you can use the "bufferfile" command to set it to an arbitrary textfile, and "readbuf" to effectively do a "copy". You may also find useful: I have some switches with a crappy CLI that if you paste too much info too fast, it drops, so I typed the following commands into screen to make it work: bufferfile /home/danm/summit48.cfg slowpaste 120 readbuf paste . I could have also just put these in a file and used screen's "source" command to run them all. HTH, -Dan -- "It's three o'clock in the morning. It's too late for 'oops'.
