Right now the linux server doesn't have tmux, and I don't really feel like adding it just to set up one session. It's a linux server for running Minecraft, the screens are the minecraft server, a teamspeak server, and a shoutcast server. One per window.

I have made progress on the shell script (I think):

Code:

#!/bin/bash

# shortcut variable
SCR="screen -S test -t"
# start screen session 'test' with window 'vim'
screen -d -m -S test -t vim
# run a command in window 'vim'
$SCR vim -X stuff $'vim \riDone\rwith\rthis.\x1b'
# make new window 'emacs'
$SCR vim -X screen -t emacs
# run command in window 'emacs'
$SCR emacs -X stuff $'emacs \rHello, Sir!\r'
# new window 'pico'
$SCR emacs -X screen -t pico
$SCR pico -X stuff $'pico \rDo your homework!!!'
# unset variable
unset SCR

Right now that code makes the session and windows with the proper names, but doesn't run the "stuff"s. Attaching to the screen windows shows only the shell input line and not the editors.

gvimdiff

VIMDIFF(1)						      General Commands Manual							VIMDIFF(1)

NAME

       vimdiff - edit two, three or four versions of a file with Vim and show differences

SYNOPSIS

       vimdiff [options] file1 file2 [file3 [file4]]

       gvimdiff

DESCRIPTION

       Vimdiff	starts	Vim  on  two (or three or four) files.	Each file gets its own window.	The differences between the files are highlighted.
       This is a nice way to inspect changes and to move changes from one version to another version of the same file.

       See vim(1) for details about Vim itself.

       When started as gvimdiff the GUI will be started, if available.

       In each window the 'diff' option will be set, which causes the differences to be highlighted.
       The 'wrap' and 'scrollbind' options are set to make the text look good.
       The 'foldmethod' option is set to "diff", which puts ranges of lines without changes in a fold.	'foldcolumn' is set to two to make it easy
       to spot the folds and open or close them.

OPTIONS

       Vertical splits are used to align the lines, as if the "-O" argument was used.  To use horizontal splits instead, use the "-o" argument.

       For all other arguments see vim(1).

SEE ALSO

       vim(1)

AUTHOR

       Most of Vim was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help from others.	See ":help credits" in Vim.
