bash : how to use screen to have a term session used at home after work?

Question

Everything is in the title, I would like to start a session at work and be able to get it when i'm at home.

Answer 1

While at work, start a screen session:

$ screen

Do whatever work you want on the terminal session, and when you are leaving to go home, detach the session by pressing CTRL-A then D. Your screen session will then disappear. To re-activate it once you are home, resume the session with the -r option:

$ screen -r

All your work will appear as you enter the saved screen session.
