shellinabox VS tmux

Is it an alternative to shellinabox ?

Shell In A Box (though it hasn't been updated in a few years)

Remind me of ShellInABox, but Apache Guacamole is probably much better supported.

From the GitHub community, nyxnor did an amazing work to rewrite the support of bridges with pluggable transports (OBFS4, MEEK-AZURE and SNOWFLAKE) to make it easier than ever to circumvent censorship. Also, we experimentally added „Shellinabox“ so that user, who are not familiar with SSH can also access the TorBox Main menu with a web browser. However, we are not completely satisfied with that solution yet because browsers are showing warning messages with the self-signed certificate for a secure connection. We are eager to hear your feedback on “Shellinabox”. Do you know better alternatives? For more details about the latest TorBox Version, check out our Blog Post.

It's also possible ports 80/443 are also available to your Windows machine. In which case you might use your NoMachine service to listen on that port. If the firewall is not permissive enough, you can use something like shellinabox to HTTP into the Windows machine and perform administration tasks to disable RDP/endable NoMachine on port 3389.

It looks like Telehack is running a Javascript + CSS kit called ShellInABox to allow web browsers to connect via Telnet. The link they provided in the "about" leads to a malfunctioning webpage, looks to be last updated in 2010. However, that project was forked on GitHub, and the most recent update appears to be Jan 2019, so there is a likely-working copy of that software for allowing for that kind of access.

This got me thinking about my recent pivot, my switch to Neovim by way of LazyVim to write most of my code, and using tmux to keep terminal states alive after closing a session.

I use Tmux. It's a terminal-agnostic multiplexer. Gives you persistence and automation superpowers.

Having a common set of tools already set up in different windows or sessions in Tmux or Zellij is obviously an option, but there is a subset of us ( 👋 ) that would rather just have fingertip access to our common tools inside of our editor.

Once you have your Mac or Linux machine ready, make sure to downlaod and install TMUX (Terminal Mulitplexer). A lot of our scripts are going to be running headless inside of a TMUX session as it's an incredibly clean way to manage and organise different workspaces simultaneously. A lot of our scripts will help us to interact with TMUX so don't worry if it looks a little intimidating at first. You can install TMUX using your package manager in the terminal, use whichever applies to you:

After having spent too much time trying to get the simple https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-tmux/ features into mainline tmux (last November https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/3753), maybe it'd be easier to jump ship as use zellij?

Could anyone offer recommendations on "riced" zellij configuations, or just a demo where it shows doing with (say charts of disk usage per folder), watching a movie with mpv + keeping a vim to type on?

Well, I now use tmux and tmuxinator. I have had many failed tmux attempts over the years, but I'm firmly bedded in now.

Which leads me to clipboards. Linux has two of them! Adding to the interest, I typically use Neovim remotely, via an SSH connection to a Tmux session. And on my Linux system, I use urxvt as my terminal program. All of these are very UNIX-y tools, and somehow they all need to play nicely together.

The downside of overmind is that it requires tmux, which is a terminal multiplexer tool. If you don't already use tmux, I'd say it's probably not worth learning it just for the purposes of using overmind. But if you're like me and already know/use tmux, this can be a great solution to pursue.
