How to get a list of programs running with nohup

Question

I am accessing a server running CentOS (linux distribution) with an SSH connection. Since I can\'t always stay logged in, I use \"nohup [command] &\" to run my programs.

Answer 1

Instead of nohup, you should use screen. It achieves the same result - your commands are running "detached". However, you can resume screen sessions and get back into their "hidden" terminal and see recent progress inside that terminal.

screen has a lot of options. Most often I use these:

To start first screen session or to take over of most recent detached one:

screen -Rd 

To detach from current session: Ctrl+ACtrl+D

You can also start multiple screens - read the docs.
