+* Byobu
+[[https://www.byobu.org][byobu]] is a command-line tool that allows you
+to use numerous screens within a single terminal emulator instance. More
+specifically, it's a text based window manager, using either =screen= or
+=tmux=.
+
+This post is mostly just a self-reference as I explore byobu, so I may
+come back later and update this post with more content.
+
+** Screenshot
+Take a look below at my current multi-window set-up in byobu while I
+write this blog post:

+
+*** Keybindings
+You can open the help menu with either of the following commands; they
+will both open the same manpage:
+
+#+begin_src sh
+byobu --help
+# or
+man byobu
+#+end_src
+
+While the manpage contains a ton of information about the functionality
+of byobu (such as status notifications, sessions, and windows), the
+first location to explore should be the keybindings section.
+
+The keybindings are configured as follows:
+
+#+begin_src txt
+byobu  keybindings  can be user defined in /usr/share/byobu/keybindings/ (or 
+within .screenrc if byobu-export was used). The common key bindings are:
+
+F2 - Create a new window
+F3 - Move to previous window
+F4 - Move to next window
+F5 - Reload profile
