GNU Screen
is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes, typically interactive shells. Programs running in Screen continue to run when their window is currently not visible and even when the whole screen session is detached from the user's terminal.
See the official overview
GNU Screen manual
for the description of the features.
Telepítés

screen
package.
Használat
Commands are entered pressing the "escape key"
Ctrl+a

Customizing Screen
You can modify the default settings for Screen according to your preference either through a personal
.screenrc
file which contains commands to be executed at startup (e.g.
~/.screenrc
) or on the fly in command mode (e.g.
Ctrl+a
:vbell off
).
Tippek és trükkök
Autostart with systemd
This service autostarts screen for the specified user (e.g.
systemctl enable screen@florian
). Running this as a system unit is important, because
systemd --user
instance is not guaranteed to be running and will be killed when the last session for given the user is closed.
/etc/systemd/system/screen@.service
[Unit]
Description=screen
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=%i
ExecStart=/usr/bin/screen -DmS autoscreen
ExecStop=/usr/bin/screen -S autoscreen -X quit

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Change the escape key
It can be a good idea to change the default escape key, not only because "a" is usually typed with the left pinky, but also because
Ctrl+a
is mapped to the common command
beginning-of-line
in
GNU Readline
and
Bash
-like shells.
The escape key can be changed with the
escape
option in
~/.screenrc
, or the
-e
option to
screen
.
For example, if you find that you rarely type
Ctrl+j
in your shell or editor, you could use
escape ^Jj
to set the escape key to
Ctrl+j
. The second "j" means that a literal
Ctrl+j
can be sent to the terminal via the sequence
Ctrl+j
j
. For
Dvorak
keyboard users,
Ctrl+t
(
escape ^Tt
) might be more convenient.
More exotic options include
escape ``
which sets the escape key to
`
, or
escape ^^^
which sets it to
Ctrl+^
.
The escape key is also called the "command character" in Screen documentation.
Start at window 1
By default, the first screen window is 0. If you would rather never have a window 0 and start instead with 1, add the following lines on your configuration:
~/.screenrc
bind c screen 1
bind ^c screen 1
bind 0 select 10                                                            
screen 1
Nested Screen Sessions
It is possible to get stuck in a nested screen session. A common scenario: you start an SSH session from within a screen session. Within the SSH session, you start screen. By default, the outer screen session that was launched first responds to
Ctrl+a
commands. To send a command to the inner screen session, use
Ctrl+a
a
, followed by your command. For example:
Ctrl+a
a
d
Detaches the inner screen session.
Ctrl+a
a
K
Kills the inner screen session.
Start Screen on every shell
For Bash and Zsh, add the following snippet to your
.bashrc
or
.zshrc
before your aliases:
~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc
if [[ -z "$STY" ]]; then
   screen -xRR session_name
fi
Use 256 colors
This article or section is out of date.
Reason:
screen 4.4 sets
$TERM
to
screen.$TERM
, although
the manual
says something different. There should be no need to modify it in
~/.screenrc
. (Discuss in
Talk:GNU Screen (Magyar)
)
By default, Screen uses an 8-color terminal emulator. To enable more colors, you need to be using a terminal that supports them and set the correct
term
value. This will use
terminfo
to describe how the
ANSI escape codes
will be interpreted. An entry in the terminfo database structure must exist,
ncurses
provides many common descriptions stored under
/usr/share/terminfo/
.
First try the generic value:
~/.screenrc
term screen-256color
If that does not work, try setting it based on your terminal. When using
xterm
-based terminal:
~/.screenrc
term xterm-256color
When using
rxvt-unicode
:
~/.screenrc
term rxvt-unicode-256color
Megjegyzés
/usr/share/terminfo/r/rxvt-unicode-256color
is provided by
rxvt-unicode-terminfo
, which is installed as a dependency of
rxvt-unicode
. However, if you log into a server via
SSH
and run
screen
there, this terminfo file might not be available on the server. In this case it is recommended to copy
/usr/share/terminfo/r/rxvt-unicode-256color
on the server, it can be saved in
~/.terminfo/
.
As a last resort, try setting
termcapinfo
instead:
~/.screenrc
attrcolor b ".I"    # allow bold colors - necessary for some reason
termcapinfo xterm 'Co#256:AB=\E[48;5;%dm:AF=\E[38;5;%dm'   # tell screen how to set colors. AB = background, AF=foreground
defbce on    # use current bg color for erased chars
Informative statusbar
The default statusbar may be a little lacking. You may find this one more helpful:
~/.screenrc
truecolor on
hardstatus off
hardstatus alwayslastline '%{#00ff00}[ %H ][%{#ffffff}%= %{7}%?%-Lw%?%{1;0}%{1}(%{15}%n%f%t%?(%u)%?%{1;0}%{1})%{7}%?%+Lw%? %=%{#00ff00}][ %{#00a5ff}%{6}%Y-%m-%d %{#ffffff}%{7}%0c%{#00ff00} ]'
statusbar at top:
~/.screenrc
hardstatus firstline
Turn welcome message off
~/.screenrc
startup_message off
Turn your hardstatus line into a dynamic urxvt|xterm|aterm window title
This one is pretty simple; just switch your current
hardstatus
line into a
caption
line with notification, and edit accordingly:
~/.screenrc
termcapinfo rxvt* 'hs:ts=\E]2;:fs=\007:ds=\E]2;\007'
hardstatus string "screen (%n: %t)"
caption always '%{= 7;0}%Y-%m-%d %c %-Lw%{+b 2;0}[%n %t]%{-}%+Lw%=%{-}'
This will give you something like
screen (0 bash)
in the title of your terminal emulator. The caption supplies the date, current time, and colorizes your screen window collection.
Use X scrolling mechanism
The scroll buffer of GNU Screen can be accessed with
Ctrl+a
[
. However, this is very inconvenient. To use the scroll bar of e.g. xterm or Konsole, add the following line
[1]
:
~/.screenrc
termcapinfo xterm*|rxvt*|kterm*|Eterm* ti@:te@
Attach an existing running program to screen
If you started a program outside Screen, but now you would like it to be inside, you can use
reptyr
to reparent the process from its current TTY to one inside screen.
Install
the
reptyr
package.
Get the PID of the process (you can use
ps ax
for that). Now just enter the PID as argument to reptyr inside a screen window.
$ reptyr
pid
Setting a different bash prompt while in screen
If you want a different bash prompt when in a screen session, add the following to your
.bashrc
[2]
:
if [ -z $STY ]
then
        PS1="YOUR REGULAR PROMPT"
else  
        PS1="YOUR SCREEN PROMPT"
fi
Turn off visual bell
With this setting, Screen will not make an ugly screen flash instead of a bell sound.
~/.screenrc
vbell off
Getting rid of the vertical and horizontal bars
To get rid of the vertical bars:
$ ~/.screenrc
rendition so =00
To hide the horizontal bar, set the back and foreground color to default (d) and display a blank (" "):
~/.screenrc
caption string "%{03} "
If this does not work, try
caption string "%{00} "
instead. For the default caption in black and white, use
caption string "%{00}%3n %t"
.
Troubleshooting
Fix for residual editor text
When you open a text editor like
nano
in screen and then close it, the text may stay visible in your terminal. To fix this, put the following:
~/.screenrc
altscreen on
Fix for Name column in windowlist only show "bash"
This article or section needs expansion.
Reason:
Explain what does the command do. (Discuss in
Talk:GNU Screen (Magyar)
)
Add following to
~/.screenrc
:
~/.screenrc
windowlist string "%4n %h%=%f"
