Using screen

1. Start a Screen session

   Simply type screen and press Enter. This will start a new session.

   To create a named session instead, use screen -S mysession.

2. Detach from a session

   Press Ctrl-A followed by D. The session will continue running in the background.

3. List active sessions

   Run screen -ls

4. Re-attach to a session

   1. Use screen -r to attach to resume the last session.

   2. Use screen -r mysession to attach to a named session.

   3. If you got kicked out of the system, the session may still be attached. Use screen -D -r mysession to force-detach, then re-attach to the session. (No name is needed if there is only one session.)
