I have several screens running, and I would like to be able to tell what process is running in each one. I can run ps -aux and grep pts/# to find what processes are associated with a particular pts, but I have been unable to correlate this to a screen.

What I want to do is determine what commands to send to the screen based on what is running in it, and if nothing, just kill it.

I have been reading for hours, but I can not find a way to figure out what pts a screen -dr nameHere would go to.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

supposing you are asking about displays in X11, this should do the trick in most cases:

I would rather look for parent and/or child processes (of screen)
