Screen

A brief list of the main screen commands.

Check the active sessions

$ screen -list

Connect to an active session

$ screen -R <session_name>

Once connected to a session

  • detach from that session: first, press CTRL+A, then D

  • kill that session: first, press CTRL+A, then K

  • scroll with arrows:

    • first, press CTRL+A, then Esc.
    • next, press the Up and Down arrow keys or the PgUp and PgDn keys to scroll through previous output
    • press Esc to exit scrollback mode.

Kill all the active screen sessions

$ killall screen; screen -wipe

Indeed, the command screen -wipe is used to clean the screen list

Enable scrolling in your screen session

Create a file ~/.screenrc and add the following lines therein

# Enable mouse scrolling and scroll bar history scrolling
termcapinfo xterm* ti@:te@

Enable logging in your screen session

Create a file ~/.screenrc and add the following lines therein

logfile ${HOME}/.ros/3dmr/logs/%H_%S_%Y%m%d-%c.log
logfile flush 1
log on

# Uncomment to enable timestamping in logs
logtstamp after 1
# logtstamp string "[ %t: %Y-%m-%d %c:%s ]\012"
logtstamp on

the logs will be created in the folder ${HOME}/.ros/3dmr/logs. This log folder is set in the file config.sh (main folder of the repo).
