Amazon Linux - Install Byobu
Run the following script after checking if it is the latest release.
sudo yum update -y wget https://launchpad.net/byobu/trunk/5.119/+download/byobu_5.119.orig.tar.gz tar xzf byobu*.tar.gz cd byobu-* ./configure sudo make sudo make install
You should now be able to enter byobu with the following command:
byobu
Optional - Switch Byobu Backend To Tmux
By default, byobu will use screen for sessions instead of tmux. This results in there being two rows at the bottom instead of just one. Here's how to change to using tmux.
sudo yum install tmux -y byobu-select-backend
At the prompt, press 1 to select tmux.
