screen cheatsheet

screen is a tool to open shell sessions on sockets, so that you can disconnect from a shell session on a remote server connected through ssh without loosing running commands in them.

Open a socket under a name

On the remote server connected using ssh host.mydomain.tld, run

screen -S monitor htop

Close the shell. Now you can connect to the session using ssh directly, re-attaching to the session:

ssh -t host.mydomain.tld screen -r monitor
