Syntax

Description

Detach the screen session (disconnect it from the terminal and put it into the background). This returns you to the shell where you invoked screen. A detached screen can be resumed by invoking screen with the -r option (see also section Command-Line Options). The -h option tells screen to immediately close the connection to the terminal (“hangup”).
