Hello, Whilst it is possible to re-attach multiple screens inside of one "super"screen session, it can get rather messy. The "super"screen will need different keybindings from the "inside" screens in order to allow you to control them both.
In your case, I would either: - restore the screens in separate terminal sessions Or: - use a tabbed terminal emulator (konsole or gnome-terminal) and re-attach each session in a different tab. Personally, I use separate teminals with separate screen sessions for each activity and open as many screens in each session as I need. Using a hard status line and naming screen 0 after the name of the session allows me to find my way when working with multiple sessions. This set-up also allows me to easily resize screen sessions without influencing others.

Once I get back to my machine, I would like to be able to see all 4 of them as split windows once I reattach (or tabs). Is this possible? In all my research, I have come across screen splitting tips, but that always creates a *new* session and does not allow me to reattach to an existing session. Thoughts / suggestions?
