GNU Screen, or screen, is a tool to multiplex a terminal between several processes. With screen, you are able to run multiple session instances from a single terminal session. Let’s go over some useful screen commands in Linux and explain how this versatile tool works. Screen also allows you to close and exit from the terminal session and reconnect later and resume your work. You can continue to work from where you left it, even after logging out from the terminal. In this article, we will show you some useful examples of screen commands in Linux. By the end of this article, you will understand and be able to work with multiple screen sessions using a single terminal session.
