  Screen is a moderately complex program that emulates a terminal. The feature it is best known for is the ability to disconnect and reconnect to screen sessions, which very gracefully survive logoffs. Screen has many more useful features, which are beyond

  • It is easy to confuse C-a S, which a uses a capital 'S' with C-a s, which uses a lower case 's'. The upper case command causes screen to be horizontally split (that is, with one region on top of the other), while the lower case command causes the parent terminal to freeze. To unfreeze the parent terminal, use the C-a q command. 

    To remove this command, use the command sequence: bind s. This command can be entered at the colon (':') prompt or in the screen startup file. 
  • To enter the scrollback mode press C-a <Esc>. When you do this, a notice briefly appears in the terminal's status-bar, which says "Copy mode...". Now, you can scroll up and down in the current terminal using the <PageUp>/<PageDown> keys or the C-u and C-d commands. Althought quite useful by itself, scrollback mode is even more powerful when combined with copy and paste.
  • Copying works by selecting a start position and an end position for text to be copied. These are marked with the cursor's current position by pressing the <Space> key. Between two strokes the buffer can be navigated with the keys <h>, <j>, <k>, <l>,
  • Change escape sequence
  • Tab-bar
  • You can play with the values in the %{= xx} fields to change the colors. See the screen manpage under "STRING ESCAPES" for more details.
  • auto renaming the "tabs"
  • Monitoring for silence or activity
