Following command sends word 'test' followed by an enter into a screen session (in our case screen_1). How do I print the result, if that would result ? How do I print the result, even if the program running in the session is locked ?
Thank you

Thank you for the quick answers DGPickett , and thank you for info. Like you said , in a screen session ctrl+a and then h + enter , generates a hardcopy of that screen .

I use ksh, HISTSIZE=32767, .sh_history not in volatile /tmp, and periodically I make a gzipped backup that my command search scripts can look in to expand my ksh typein history.
