NAME
     byobu-select-session - select and connect to a byobu session

DESCRIPTION
     byobu-select-session is an application that lists the available screen ses-
     sions  running on the system, and prompts the user to select one.	The user
     also has the option to create a new Byobu session, or  launch  the  default
     shell without Byobu.

     If  an  invalid selection is chosen 3 times in a row, the user is connected
     to the youngest session.

     By default, if only one session exists, the user is connected to that  ses-
     sion, and if no sessions exist, a new session is created -- such that there
     is  no  interactive prompt in the normal behavior.  However, some users may
     choose to always be prompted, by touching the  file  $BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR/.al-
     ways-select.

     Note that BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR=$HOME/.byobu.

     Named  sessions  that  begin with a "." are "hidden" from byobu-select-ses-
     sion(1).  This is useful, for instance, if you do not want a session to  be
     automatically selected at login.  Example:
       byobu -S .hidden

FILES
     $BYOBU_CONFIG_DIR/.always-select
