in reply to How to access different terminal tab using perl?

So, what's running in tabs 1, 2 and 4? Executables? bash? a video player? Are any of them children of your script in Tab3

You can pass control to a process running in a new tab by invoking that process in a new tab in your script but I suspect that using a script to control running (non-child) processes in other tabs is likely to be a major s...t...r...e...t...c...h.



Questions containing the words "doesn't work" (or their moral equivalent) will usually get a downvote from me unless accompanied by:
  1. code
  2. verbatim error and/or warning messages
  3. a coherent explanation of what "doesn't work actually means.
