This is how I send commands to a screen session with -X stuff:

Code:
screen -p 0 -S gmod1 -X stuff "$(printf "%s\r" "say SERVER BACKUP STARTING. Please logoff ASAP...")"

I don't know how this would be defined in your app, perhaps:

Code:
"screen -p 0 -S gmod1 -X stuff "$(printf "%s\r" "command.text")""

Or perhaps this:

Code:
"screen -p 0 -S gmod1 -X stuff  'command.text'" & "`echo -ne '\015'`"

ex3d

ex3d(3alleg4)							  Allegro manual						     ex3d(3alleg4)

NAME

       ex3d - 3d 'bouncy cubes' demo. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       Example ex3d

DESCRIPTION

       This  program  demonstrates  how  to use the 3d matrix functions.  It isn't a very elegant or efficient piece of code, but it does show the
       stuff in action. It is left to the reader as an exercise to design a proper model structure and rendering pipeline: after all, the best way
       to do that sort of stuff varies hugely from one game to another.

       The  example  first  shows a screen resolution selection dialog.  Then, a number of bouncing 3d cubes are animated. Pressing a key modifies
       the rendering of the cubes, which can be wireframe, the more complex transparent perspective  correct  texture  mapped  version,  and  many
       other.
