Shell script + simulation keyboard key presed

Hi all,

I have a simple question.

Is that possible to simulate an keyboard action ie: ctrl-a d for detach a screen in a script,

I need this to check in the screen the folowing keyword "SEGFAULT" an then restart the processus.

If you have any suggestion...

Best regards

Paca
