Caution: 'exec screen' in .profile / bash
Authored by: victory on Jun 22, '06 03:41:36PM

Just a note on part 2b of the hint above:

If you're using bash as your default shell and you put the 'exec screen' line in your ~/.profile, this will prevent some apps from properly executing shell cmds/scripts.

For example, doing so prevents TextMate's 'Execute Line Inserting Result' command from working properly.
