Can zsh monitor screen output in a backgroundy sort of way?

No.  That would need to be a function of the terminal itself (or
terminal emulator, which might have a better chance).

Otherwise if you direct those messages to a file, there are various
ways (still not directly part of zsh) to monitor file changes.

I think the terminal emulator I use does keep a file. I'll look intothat. It would be cool if every screen write tripped a flag somewheretho, then it would be easy. Tx.
