Ask HN: What trick of the trade took you too long ...
When I realized that a) `screen` exists and b) what it does, I felt like an utter fool for having gone for years—
YEARS
—without benefiting from it.

It is a terminal multiplexer. You will be able to find youtube videos. The gp is talking about a tool called gnu screen. If you need a more distinct token to search on try “tmux”.

Pretty sure they mean GNU screen, a terminal multiplexer. Similar in functionality to tmux or zellj (a newer alternative) if you have heard of those.

Wait until you discover tmux[1].
