I just found a nice method to invoke screen automatically if after login via SSH. So you don't have to manually start it first.
Put the following at the end of your ~/.bashrc
# Auto-screen invocation. see: http://taint.org/wk/RemoteLoginAutoScreen # if we're coming from a remote SSH connection, in an interactive session # then automatically put us into a screen(1) session. Only try once # -- if $STARTED_SCREEN is set, don't try it again, to avoid looping # if screen fails for some reason. if [ "$PS1" != "" -a "${STARTED_SCREEN:-x}" = x -a "${SSH_TTY:-x}" != x ] then STARTED_SCREEN=1 ; export STARTED_SCREEN [ -d $HOME/lib/screen-logs ] || mkdir -p $HOME/lib/screen-logs sleep 1 screen -RR && exit 0 # normally, execution of this rc script ends here... echo "Screen failed! continuing with normal bash startup" fi # [end of auto-screen snippet] |
If you want more details and some additional tricks just go to http://taint.org/wk/RemoteLoginAutoScreen.
Merci für den Tipp!
Hey, I noticed that if you use this script, then you can’t create new screen windows with Ctrl+A, C. When you do that, it starts with a fresh environment so STARTED_SCREEN is not set. The solution is to test if screen is not already started with $TERM != “screen”
If you use the following line, it works better:
if [ "$PS1" != "" -a $TERM != "screen" -a "${STARTED_SCREEN:-x}" = x -a "${SSH_TTY:-x}" != x ]
I tested the code above on Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, 13.04, Debian 6 and 7, Arch 2012.12.01, and OpenWRT bleeding edge.
^A, C worked just fine on all of those. I’m not sure why Martijn’s would be different.
I added the code to the bottom of .bashrc on raspbian wheezy. The system’s response upon sourcing the file was to clear the terminal’s display and present me with a blinking cursor, as if .bashrc was never finished. I had to ctrl-c to regain the prompt. I moved the code to the top of the .bashrc with the same result. I am unsure how to troubleshoot the problem. My original .bashrc can be examined at this link:

Thanks for any enlightenment.
