This post is just to talk about Screen Sessions in Linux (esp. ubuntu) using command “byobu”.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is Byobu?<\/strong>
\nByobu is a Japanese term for decorative, multi-panel screens. As an open source project, Byobu is an elegant enhancement of plain GNU Screen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where can it be used?<\/strong>
\nYou SSH to some remote machine and Run some commands (application, service, etc). Now you want to logout of ssh session. But want your screen turned-on, so that you just resume it, the next time you access the machine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How to use it?<\/strong>
\nIt’s as simple as 2 steps process.
\n[groovy]
\nStep 1: Enter command "byobu"
\nStep 2: Press F2 (to create a new screen)
\n[\/groovy]
\nhere you go!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now you are in a detachable screen session. Enter your commands. And once you done —
\n[groovy]
\nPress F6 (to detach the screen)
\n[\/groovy]
\nIf you are already logged-into some remote machine (using ssh), now you can logout. And your screen will remain there.
\nThen, when you come back — you can resume your screen back by following commmand
\n[groovy]
\n$ screen -r
\n[\/groovy]
\nIt’s good to read about other options (like, screen -x)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Your comments are always Welcome. Please post if you have any!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cheers!
