Usage
To start, just execute screenrun.
rosrun screenrun screenrun [b]
If b is passed, byobu is used instead of screen.
Configuration
The programs to run will be read from a local parameter ~programs that contains a list of programs to run. Commands will not be executed, but inserted into the screen as if they were typed. Thus, Ctrl-C, <up>, etc. should work. To actually run a command append \015 (Enter) to a command.
A screen session named ros is started and screen windows with the program name are created, where the commands are entered. Usually the ~programs parameter will come from a configuration or launch file. See this example as a reference:
