Run Screen in linux over SSH to help with disconnects #12668

Description

@Trud09

I am enjoying using ssh in vscode.

I keep having the problem of disconnecting while my python script is running.

I would like a way to have the "Run Python In Terminal" Button run screen first, so if I disconnect, I can reconnect to the running terminal.

Currently it runs this command:

"python script.py"

I would like it to automatically run:

"screen python script.py"

It could also be a once time setup similar to "source /path/activate" runs before the python script is executed.

Some checking to make sure there are not duplicate screen sessions running would be a plus, but basic functionality is needed first.

I search for a way to do this. If there is a shortcut for this functionality, please let me know.

Thank you
