About

GNU Screen is a GNU command line application which lets you create and access virtual terminal sessions.

Notes

From outside screen:

  • screen -R reconnects to the most recently-created session.
  • screen -ls lists the available sessions.
  • screen -r <pid.tty.host> reconnects to the specified session (note: .host is optional)

I haven't been able to figure out how to connect to a session other than the most recent one.

From within screen:

  • [CTRL-A] d disconnects from the current session (but does not end it)
