• SRCDS Linux Screen

Hello Fellow Humans Around The World Of Earth! I'm using my srcds server using PuTTY so its basically a Linux Terminal. Anyway, how do I minimize the SRCDS screen/window so I can close PuTTY from my computer and still have my server running?
There's an awesome command called [url=http://www.computerhope.com/unix/screen.htm]screen[/url] for this. Basically, you just run [B]screen -S enter_a_name_here[/B]. This kinda creates something like a virtual console. You can now start your server, and detach (leave the console) if you want using [b]Ctrl-A D[/b] (press Ctrl-A first, then press D (without holding ctrl)) You can then re-attach to the screen using [b]screen -x -S enter_the_same_name_here[/b] [editline]27th April 2013[/editline] You can also do [B]screen -ls[/B] to get a list of all screens.
Great! I think it works! Thanks mate!
