.SH NAME
byobu\-ctrl\-a \- Configure Byobu's ctrl-a behavior
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B byobu-ctrl-a
['screen'|'tmux']
[key]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBbyobu\-ctrl\-a\fP is an interactive program that allows a user to configure the behavior of the 'ctrl-a' key sequence.
Traditional GNU \fBscreen\fP(1) uses ctrl-a as its escape character, while GNU \fBemacs\fP(1) uses ctrl-a to move the cursor to the beginning of the line. This conflict has caused unending amounts of grief among Screen, Byobu, and Emacs-mode users.
Thus, this program exists to allow each user to choose the behavior of ctrl-a in their local environment.
