i think that "_selection_finished" signal should be placed in a
./signals file. So that, after the complicated script finished selection
- it just writes "_selection_finished" into ./signals file. So then `m`
can process further. Without interaction through "display"-server.
But bear one thing I mind - I want interactive working to be easy.
(clicking, writing commands, clicking again)
