gnu-screen

I am using the terminal program called screen, which can create several "virtual terminals" in a single "real" terminal (the words "virtual" and "real" here are quite relative, the "real" terminal can be a konsole tab as well, not necessarily tty1-tty6). The problem is that I cannot create more than 40 windows inside a single screen. When I try to create more, screen says "No more windows." After some googling I found that that this is controlled by something called MAXWIN, but I didn't find any information how to modify this MAXWIN. How can I increase the maximal number of windows inside a

If I start a GNU screen session as a daemon, how would I retrieve its PID programmatically? I don't know how consistent the output of screen -ls is, so I'd like to know how to do this with one of bash's constants, $$ , $! or a better alternative. I am starting the screen with screen -dmS screenname . How would I get the PID of a screen right before or immediately after starting the screen session? This show the pid for a screen named nameofscreen : $ screen -ls There are screens on: 19898.otherscreen (07/03/2012 05:50:45 PM) (Detached) 19841.nameofscreen (07/03/2012 05:50:23 PM) (Detached) 2

I am trying to create a screen session/window from the shell and launch a command in it. How would I do that? If you want to launch and connect to screen: screen CMD If you want to launch and not connect to screen: screen -dm CMD Works with sessions too: screen -Sdm NewDetachedSessionName first create new session : screen -dmS [session_name] then attach command or script to run in session created : screen -x [session_name] [script.sh] 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11491700/gnu-screen-create-screen-in-background-run-command-from-shell-or-script

I am currently in a byobu-tmux session and am ssh'ed into a screen session. How do I detach the remote screen session without detaching byobu-tmux session? Some things to note, I can't run byobu-config because I'm on osx and don't have python-newt (w/ snack) installed. And, I've run byobu-ctrl-a in Emacs mode, but that doesn't seem to allow me to ctrl-a d out of the remote screen session. You should be able to double-escape with Ctrl - a . To send a detach message to the inner byobu-screen session, press: Ctrl - a Ctrl - a d Full disclosure: I am the author and maintainer of Byobu . It is easy

Background: I have a long running script that makes database schema changes that has output I would want to check after the migration. I would want to write this to a file. I have been reading stack overflow about nohup and screen. I have tried both and have concerns about both. IN: How to run process as background and never die? They said they used nohup and putty killed the process. How is this possible? I have been unable to replicate using Mac OS X terminal. With screen I am terrified of typing exit instead of ctrl + a, d Also If I just quit the terminal app when using screen, it seems to

I connect to a remote server using ssh -L but if I close the laptop lid or the connection is lost, the jupyter notebook is disconnected. After I reconnect to the remote server, the "last" session is lost. What can be done to make it persistent? Could screen help with it? On the remote server, you should open your jupyter in a screen session, it will make it persistent if you lose the connection to the server and resume it. On your computer: ssh -L xxxx:localhost:yyyy server . screen . jupyter notebook --no-browser --port=yyyy . In your browser: localhost:xxxx . To disconnect manually and

When I search in, for example, man ls while in a tmux session, the search strings don't appear highlighted - the page jumps down so that the search string is on the top line of the buffer, as expected, but it's not highlighted. Doing the same thing in the same shell while not in a tmux session results in highlighted search strings. I have no idea where to start looking to solve this. Any hints are appreciated.
