Controlling other xterm

Comment:

Hi all, I'm trying to do some KSH scripting and I want to something like controlling other xterm from one xterm. example: I have 2 xterm open, xterm-1 (/dev/pts/50) and xterm-2 (/dev/pts/56) I want be able to something like this, from xterm-1 I can send command to xterm-2, example cd /usr/blah/blah then do ls -al I tried doing this from xterm-1 % chmod 755 /dev/pts/56 % echo "cd /usr;ls -al" > /dev/pts/56 but not what i expected... instead doing in on pts/56 it just do the command in xterm-1 and display it in xterm-2 any clue how to control xterm-2? Thanks Irvan

Hey Irvan, The only thing i can possibly think of rather than what you already tried is to simply telnet to the other xterm. kris.....
