_______________________________________________________
Details:
Currently, any backtick commands you execute within screen hang the terminal
emulator.
Which means, if you backtick execute a command every so often that takes more
than a few milliseconds to execute, it gets insanely irritating as your
terminal stalls while using it every so often.
There should be no delay whatsoever. To do that, the backtick command would
need to be executed asychronously and the output would have to be read in and
used as soon as the command's process has completed, which could be a few
milliseconds or a few minutes later.
