muxile VS DomTerm

I have plenty of ultra niche projects and I never regretted working on any of them. On the contrary - i use them daily and it brings me much joy. Here are three:

https://github.com/bjesus/muxile lets me continue my tmux session on the phone, bridging the two over WebSockets. How many people use tmux extensively AND want to continue on the phone? Not much i guess...

https://github.com/bjesus/callibella is my way to sync my personal calendar to my work calendar without revealing my personal entries. It's very useful for me but less needed if your personal calendar is Google because i heard they have their own integration.

https://github.com/bjesus/air is my AwesomeWM based Interface to my PostmarketOS Kobo e-reader. Linux on your e-reader isn't a huge market share to begin with...

Love mosh, back when the connection was bad I had it aliased to ssh. Somewhat relevant: if you actually a need to take your shell mobile, check out my tmux plugin that allows you to quickly transfer your tmux session to your phone without any app, using websockets and a QR code: https://github.com/bjesus/muxile

Sixel has the one advantage of being mplemented in xterm and a modest number of other terminals. Otherwise, it's a pretty bad format: Inefficient. Unclear and inconsistently implemented specification. All images have to be a multiple fof 6 pixel rows, which may not align with either image height or character height.

Some terminal implement some other protocols, but attempts to specify a standard have failed. There are some tricky issues, such as: When does an image or part of an image get erased? Can you write text on top of an image and if so how are they aligned? What happens if you write an image on top of existing text? On top of an existing image? How does scrolling affect things? What happens to the image on window resize or zoom? Can you reliably update part of an image?

DomTerm (https://domterm.org) supports images in two ways:

If interested in enhanced terminals, please take a look at DomTerm (https://domterm.org). It too optionally uses Tauri/Wry, though it can also also Electron, Qt, or a plain web-browser. You can embed images and rich text among other feayrures. DomTerm also has builtin tmux-like panes+tabs (mouse-draggable), detachable sessions, and a powerful "view" (selection) mode.

bash-preexec.sh and shell-integration.bash are copied from another terminal called DomTerm (that also offers click to position cursor) into ~/.local/share/DomTerm. Those files can be found here.

For people using or considering Mosh or Eternal Terminal: I'd love if you could try DomTerm (https://domterm.org). Specifically DomTerm's support for stable remote connections - see https://domterm.org/Remoting-over-ssh.html .

DomTerm (https://domterm.org) isn't quite what you asked for: It only indirectly has a JavaScript console: Since its frontend is a browser engine, you can open up a JavaScript debugger.

DomTerm (https://domterm.org) attempts to provide similar possibilities as TermKit. However, it starts with the position that it should also (and perhaps first) be a fully-functional modern mostly-xterm-compatible terminal emulator. On top of that we add rich html text, images, logical structure, "shell integrayion", and more.

DomTerm - JavaScript, Electron, Qt - Web browser, Linux (+ others?)

DomTerm (https://domterm.org) uses the Golden Layout library (https://github.com/golden-layout/golden-layout). As far as I can tell, this does everything mentioned in the article. It also supports tabs, and you can also reposition terminal windows by dragging, neither of which I saw mentioned in the article. (I'm currently working on being able to drag between top-level windows. It sort-of-works, but only at the proof-of-concept level.)

Please try DomTerm (https://domterm.org). The 2.9.4 AppImage (https://github.com/PerBothner/DomTerm/releases/tag/2.9.4) should have the needed support for grapheme clusters and hopefully work on reasonably up-to-date Linux systems. Of course there are more recent fixes and improvements if you don't mind building from source.
