Linux: GNU/Screen Scroll Up and Down Look At Data

GNU/Screen is a terminal multiplexer for Linux and Unix-like systems. You can use Screen to manage multiple terminal sessions in one window.

To scroll up and down in a Screen session, use the following key combinations:

  1. Scroll up: Ctrl + a followed by Esc
  2. Scroll down: Ctrl + a followed by Esc, then q

While in scroll mode, you can use the up and down arrow keys to navigate through the content of your terminal window. To exit scroll mode, simply press the q key.

Note: The behavior of the scroll mode may vary depending on your terminal emulator, but the steps outlined above should work for most setups.
