Byobu is a frontend for GNU screen (or tmux). The easiest way to
reproduce it is... (Cygwin 32-bit 20140227)
1. Install byobu on the remote host: http://byobu.co/downloads.html
2. Select screen as backend:
byobu-select-backend screen
3. Run a GNU screen session on remote host via ssh:
ssh -t USER@HOST byobu
4. Press enter multiple times to reach the bottom of the screen.
5. Issue any command (ls, echo whatever) and see that there is no
visible output
