Status bar in “screen”

/ Felipe Alfaro Solana

In order to have screen behave a little bit more like byobu, edit or create (if not present) /etc/screenrc or ~/.screenrc and add the following lines:

autodetach on 
startup_message off 
hardstatus alwayslastline 
shelltitle 'bash'
hardstatus string '%{gk}[%{wk}%?%-Lw%?%{=b kR}(%{W}%n*%f %t%?(%u)%?%{=b kR})%{= w}%?%+Lw%?%? %{g}][%{d}%l%{g}][ %{= w}%Y/%m/%d %0C:%s%a%{g} ]%{W}'
