for sure of course,
Please see below.
this is not informative, except as (verified),
screen does not start before login.
but i do not know how to start screen and
brltty automatically after login.
Sorry for my ignorance... ...
i run tcsh. i tried many things without result.
is it a way to do this?
Thanks.
