Short question: is there anyway to get Byobu
to present warnings questions, perhaps in the form Are you sure you want to kill X? y/n
when killing windows/panes/splits etc.?

Using screen
as backend for byobu
allows you to use Ctrl-a+k shortcut for killing windows , allows you to have a Really kill this window [y/n]
confirmation message.
The screen bellow shows this functionality. The command actually ran is byobu-screen
. You can alias byobu
to byobu-screen
to avoid running byobu-screen
each time, but it may lead to confusion.
.bashrc
, but that will only work locally, won't work over ssh.
