oops: screen -x myname -X stuff 'mycommand' \n

on the same box from another term:

$ screen -x myscreen -X stuff 'mycommand \n'

echoes command to myscreen and runs mycommand,

from a remote box running a bash script:

$ ssh me@myip -t "screen -x myscreen -X stuff 'mycommand \n' "

opens myscreen but mycommand is not echoed nor does it run

further ideas please

regards

Jonathan
