Re: screen inside screen (via ssh)

Also remember if you accidentally start screen B with the same escape key
as screen A you can always use the screen command-mode to change the screen
B escape key without exiting screen B.



Ala: ^a a : escape ^Ss



I enjoy
^s as the 'inside' escape key since it's right next to ^a and doesn't do 
anything
(these days). Just remember defflow off in your .screenrc



This used to
drive me nuts every time I'd forget to invoke screen with a different escape
key when ssh-ing, so finally I just put aliases in my .zshrc for each:



alias sc="exec screen -RD" # regular

alias scr="exec screen -RD -e'^Ss'"
# remote



Cheers!
