byobu\-select\-session \- select and connect to a byobu session
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBbyobu\-select\-session\fP is an application that lists the available screen sessions running on the system, and prompts the user to select one. If an invalid selection is chosen 3 times in a row, the user is connected to the youngest session. If only one session exists, the user is connected to that session. If no sessions exist, a new session is created.
\fBbyobu\-select\-session\fP is an application that lists the available screen sessions running on the system, and prompts the user to select one. The user also has the option to create a new Byobu session, or launch the default shell without Byobu.
If an invalid selection is chosen 3 times in a row, the user is connected to the youngest session.
By default, if only one session exists, the user is connected to that session, and if no sessions exist, a new session is created -- such that there is no interactive prompt in the normal behavior. However, some users may choose to always be prompted, by touching the file $DATA/.always-select.
Note that DATA=$HOME/.byobu.
Named sessions that begin with a "." are "hidden" from \fBbyobu\-select\-session\fP(1). This is useful, for instance, if you do not want a session to be automatically selected at login. Example:
byobu \-S .hidden
.SH "FILES"
\fI$DATA/.always-select\fP
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PD 0
