Totally irrelevant to the main discussion, but in this case, it seems like it'd probably be a good idea to run screen on your work machine... then, if you get disconnected, after reconnecting, you can do screen -R and your various apps will still be running. (i.e. you can do multiple virtual windows with screen -- not actual separate display windows, but you just switch from 1 to 2 for example and it shows the other content) _______________________________________________ Alpine-info mailing list [email protected] http://mailman23.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/alpine-info
