Aurora FAQ

I have emacs problems when running screen/byobu or an interactive session

An interactive session is held by GNU screen that captures the escape sequences starting with CTRL thus stealing the emacs focus.

To circumvent this, here's a nice page: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnuScreen

In my opinion the best solution is to sacrifice the escape sequence Ctrl+J which sends a sequence that is interpreted as the enter button, but the enter button does not send the same sequence.

edit (create if not exists) the file ~/.screenrc :

# Use CTRL+j as escape sequence
escape ^Jj
# break screen flow in favor of emacs' one
defflow off
