screen: Keep processes running despite a dropped donnection - Xorfor/Camera GitHub Wiki

Installation

The installation of screen is very easy, run:

sudo apt install screen

Usage

With screen you can create one or more sessions in your current SSH terminal. Just run:

screen

to start it. This creates a screen session or window (although you don't see it as such) in your current SSH terminal. The most important screen commands begin with CTRL a to distinguish them from normal shell commands.

CTRL-c - Creates a new screen session so that you can use more than one screen session at once.

CTRL-n - Switches to the next screen session (if you use more than one).

CTRL-p - Switches to the previous screen session (if you use more than one).

CTRL-d - Detaches a screen session (without killing the processes in it - they continue).

To close a screen session where all tasks are finished you can type:

exit
