I'm using screen so that I can monitor donkey
(http://www.edonkey2000.com/) on my machine at home whilst at work.
I'd like to do some logging so that I can see how downloads are
progressing over time.

I've had a look at 'man screen' but it's HUGE.

basically I'd like to pipe a command into a screen and collect the
output until I get a prompt '> '

I'd like to be able to put this in a cron so I can track things over
time.

Any ideas anyone.
