While it does a great many things, its two biggest features are its detachability and its multiplexing. The detachability means that you can run programs from within screen, detach and logout, then log in later, reattach, and the programs will still be there. The multiplexing means that you can have multiple programs running within a single screen session, each within its own window. You can… text/html 2012-11-02T17:33:47+00:00 http://aperiodic.net/screen/faq?rev=1351877627&do=diff How do I get screen to put things into my terminal's scrollback? First off, it's recommended that you use screen's scrollback buffer instead. Since you can have multiple windows in a screen session, if you switch between those windows, your terminal scrollback will mix lines from all of those windows, but screen keeps separate scrollback buffers for each one. Just use C-a ESC or C-a [ to enter copy mode.

Syntax * password [crypted_pw] Description Present a crypted password in your ”.screenrc” file and screen will ask for it whenever someone attempts to resume a detached session. This is useful if you have privileged programs running under screen and you want to protect your session from reattach attempts by another user masquerading as your uid (i.e. any superuser.) If no crypted password is specified, screen prompts twice for typing a password and places its… text/html 2012-07-03T14:58:02+00:00 http://aperiodic.net/screen/quick_referencehttps:agora.akamai.com_wiki_insight_4797_notes_on_master_test_plan_results_-_first_run?rev=1341327482&do=diff test text/html 2012-04-18T17:44:45+00:00 http://aperiodic.net/screen/commands:hardstatus?rev=1334771085&do=diff Default Keybindings None. Syntax * hardstatus [on|off] * hardstatus [always]lastline|message|ignore [string] * hardstatus string [string] Description This command configures the use and emulation of the terminal’s hardstatus line. The first form toggles whether screen will use the hardware status line to display messages. If the flag is set to “off”, these messages are overlaid in reverse video mode at the display line. The default setting is “on”. text/html 2012-03-22T12:24:54+00:00 http://aperiodic.net/screen/other_links?rev=1332419094&do=diff screen Links Other screen Resources * Screen User's Manual (Error 404) * screen quick reference * Old screen FAQ (Last updated in 1999.) * Still-working mirror of Sven's screen pages Articles About screen * The beauty of screen * Take console productivity to a new level with Screen * Applications that Changed My Life: screen * Conky in Screen * Scripting screen for fun and profit * Extreme Multitasking with GNU Screen + Tabbed Client text/html 2012-02-03T11:10:09+00:00 http://aperiodic.net/screen/commands:at?rev=1328267409&do=diff Default Keybindings None.
