Byobu specific screen size.
There is away to make a window pane a specific size. I just forgot how to do it.


Something like this:


Code:
Ctrl-A : split-window -l xx -h xx

Anyone know the right way to do this?


Thanks.

Byobu is a GPLv3 open source text-based window manager and terminal multiplexer. It was originally designed to provide elegant enhancements to the otherwise functional, plain, practical GNU Screen, for the Ubuntu server distribution. Byobu now includes an enhanced profiles, convenient keybindings, configuration utilities, and toggle-able system status notifications for both the GNU Screen window manager and the more modern Tmux terminal multiplexer, and works on most Linux, BSD, and Mac distributions.

  • ctrl-F2 - Split the screen vertically
  • shift-F3 - Shift the focus to the previous split region
  • shift-F4 - Shift the focus to the next split region
  • shift-F5 - Join all splits
  • ctrl-F6 - Remove this split
  • ctrl-F5 - Reconnect GPG and SSH sockets
  • shift-F6 - Detach, but do not logout
  • alt-pgup - Enter scrollback mode
  • alt-pgdn - Enter scrollback mode
  • Ctrl-a $ - show detailed status
  • Ctrl-a R - Reload profile
