Hello there, this a 5 Minute Tutorial to screen.
What Screen is?
Well screen is an old unix / linux terminal programm with which you can create multiple virtual “screens”.
You can switch between these screens and also can disconnect from them.
Especially useful: If you start an daemon within screen and disconnect from it,
you can reconnect anytime and see what its doing.
Or you can setup a screen session, detach and close your SSH.
If you reconnect, it will still be running.
Oh, and it will be also there and running if your connection drops.
