Subject: Running a script or program from "dm"
From: Andy Foster <[email protected]>

Is it possible, using the display manager "text entry"
facility, to always add the same extra string onto 
whatever text is displayed in the box?

For example, say the "text entry" contained: 2.714.
Could you then automatically pass "2.714 EC" to the 
connected channel? Here "EC" would be the extra text.

I would imagine that this would involve being able to run a
script or a 'C' program whenever the text in the "text entry"
box changed.

This is something we're thinking we might need for the Gemini Control
Systems.
