There’s nothing worse than SSHing into a remote machine, coding some stuff in vim and losing the SSH connection randomly. Especially when you’re working in a controlled remote environment instead of locally, screen is super useful to keep your place when you get back.
screen or tmux are invaluable for programming in the terminal. both for opening more than one shell in a session, and for not accidentally closing a session just because you accidentally closed the window or lost connection. Check this out.
Shit tmux looks awesome. I’ve currently only really used screen while hosting a Minecraft server but I kept accidentally closing the process when trying to check if it’s still active lol.
I still do 99% of my coding of windows but this is tempting.
How do you use screen for programming?

Another option for Minecraft is daemonizing the process (ctrl+X in terminal, bg, then some command to disown it from your shell that I can’t remember)
Is this different from it running as a service?
