side effects of lobotomization.
lazy, mostly. too much trouble to wire a second set of outlets.
lazy's what screwed me today -- coulda turned off all the
extraneous if i'd wanted to, easy as pie, but nooooo.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #126 from Sean Quinlan <smq@gmx.co.uk>
:
How to SUSPEND A SCREEN SESSION -- two keys: control-a control-d
(hold down control, and press "a" then "d") to detach the
session (and return you to your shell). You can then reattach
with "screen -r". You can also use "screen -ls" to list all
screen sessions and their pids, in order to connect to a
specific screen session. And you can use "screen -x" to connect
to an already connected screen session (I generally use -x
instead of -r, since it does more :).
Of course, "man screen" will give you more options.
