[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #56063 (project screen):

Thanks for the help!

Some information in case others are looking:

the ocs52.sh
<https://github.com/chromium/hterm/blob/6846a85f9579a8dfdef4405cc50d9fb17d8944aa/etc/osc52.sh#L23>
script mentioned in the forum link: 

and the important excerpt:

# Send a DCS sequence through screen.
# Usage: <sequence>
screen_dcs() {
  # Screen limits the length of string sequences, so we have to break it up.
  # Going by the screen history:
  #   (v4.2.1) Apr 2014 - today: 768 bytes
  #   Aug 2008 - Apr 2014 (v4.2.0): 512 bytes
  #   ??? - Aug 2008 (v4.0.3): 256 bytes
  # Since v4.2.0 is only ~4 years old, we'll use the 256 limit.
  # We can probably switch to the 768 limit in 2022.
  local limit=256
  # We go 4 bytes under the limit because we're going to insert two bytes
  # before (\eP) and 2 bytes after (\e\) each string.
  echo "$1" | \
    sed -E "s:.{$(( limit - 4 ))}:&\n:g" | \
    sed -E -e 's:^:\x1bP:' -e 's:$:\x1b\\:' | \
    tr -d '\n'
}
