I need to create a bash script that will run byobu, then in the background continue running and do things

177 views Asked by At

What I'm trying to do is basically this:

  • start byobu in the foreground when the script runs
  • have the rest of the script run in the background and use byobu cmdline syntax to pass commands and keystrokes to the byobu instance in the foreground.

I have an existing fairly contrived script that does a bunch of stuff with screen splits and keystroke injection but the part I can't figure out is "How to launch byobu up front, so the user can watch it all happen from behind the proverbial bulletproof glass"
