In his example, we installed screen (may or may not be necessary depending on your Linux distribution used), opened a screen session and started as long sleep. Note that you could have also used screen -d -r without the 112, as there was only one screen running.

You can then use exit to close our screen session and return is to our previous/original shell session. Next, you can use CTRL+C to terminate the sleep. $ sleep 3600 # Our sleep is still running Now that we are detached from the screen session, let’s scan for screen sessions live on the system: $ screen -lsġ (06/08/20 13:41:43) (Detached) You will see the following, in your original shell session (with a different process ID number): Now you can press CTRL+a+d (press CTRL, press a, release a, press d, release d, release CTRL). Next, we start a sleep process inside the screen session: $ sleep 3600
