To backup my macOS machine, I use a screenrc which a layout and I set
/usr/local/bin/screen -dm -c
/Users/username/my_script/GNUscreen/backup.screenrc
in a crontab.
After waking up, I open the detached screen for peace of mind. Every task
works great except for the predefined screen layout. The *-dm* option doesn't
keep the layout. Without a crontab, the bug still exists. (But in this case,
*detach* option in the rc file fixes if screen starts without *-dm* option).
Also this bug exists in bash of Rocky OS 9.
This is an example *backup.screenrc* to reproduce the error.
layout save default
zombie kr
verbose on
shell zsh
sessionname backup
screen -t macOS 1
screen -t backup 2
screen -t NOTE 3
screen -t VIT 4
select NOTE
split
focus down
select macOS
split
focus down
select backup
focus up
split
focus down
select VIT
The command I used.
screen -dm -c backup.screenrc
