byobu-select-session(1) byobu byobu-select-session(1)

byobu-select-session - select and connect to a byobu session

byobu-select-session is an application that lists the available screen sessions running on the system, and prompts the user to select one. The user also has the option to create a new Byobu session, or launch the default shell without Byobu.

If an invalid selection is chosen 3 times in a row, the user is connected to the youngest session.

By default, if only one session exists, the user is connected to that session, and if no sessions exist, a new session is created -- such that there is no interactive prompt in the normal behavior. However, some users may choose to always be prompted, by touching the file $BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR/.always-select.

Note that BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR=$HOME/.byobu.

Named sessions that begin with a "." are "hidden" from byobu-select-session(1). This is useful, for instance, if you do not want a session to be automatically selected at login. Example: byobu -S .hidden

$BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR/.always-select
