wordgrinder VS Remmina

There are some people trying to recreate the Wordstar experience, like this one, and they supposedly were great and simple for writing long-form content (it was before my time, so I have no experience with it).

WordGrinder. It's great for distraction-free writing, and can output Markdown or troff. It's a great tool for getting words down, but its otherwise pretty limited (which I think is one of its strengths). When I need to print or generate a PDF, I have a little script.

For word processing there's WordGrinder, which is in the repos for many distros (in Fedora: dnf install wordgrinder). Things like LaTeX and Groff are for typesetting, which I don't view as the same as word processing. WordGrinder is more like the classical DOS word processors (e.g. WordPerfect 5.1).

Some other choices: * https://cowlark.com/wordgrinder * https://github.com/spartrekus/g-editor (WS compatible)

I have a word processor I wrote (https://cowlark.com/wordgrinder) which is mostly written in Lua, with hardware-specific stuff in C, and while this works extremely well, I'd very much like something with stronger typing. There's a possibility I'd be able to just drop in Luau and get it, plus some performance benefits. I'd need to reimplement parts of the standard library due to Luau having dropped things like the io library but that's no great hardship. I like the syntax, too, which is expressive and very lightweight.

There is Wordgrinder.

The promise behind this sounds like the holy grail of Remote Access.

Is it Linux-only for the clients? Or can you use Mac or Windows to reach it?

Next up, we need some sort of VNC client on our workstation. I strongly recommend Remmina if you value not spending your time debugging and configuring things. Just select "VNC" from the main connection bar's dropdown, punch in localhost:5900, and hit enter. An authentication screen will pop up: fill it with ec2-user for the username, and whatever password you provided to dscl earlier.

Remmina

Using RD Client on DeX to RDP in to Windows. Sometimes i use self-hosted Remmina to get access for Windows, Linux, CLI and other things.

I use the Remmina RDP Client multiple hours per day every day to connect to various servers on both my home and work networks.

I would try out a Windows VM on your home server and use the RDP protocol to connect to it with https://remmina.org/ or https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Vinagre . (Will need a Windows Pro version for enabling remote access with RDP.)

On linux I use remmina to do basically the same thing. I actually think remmina is better, it's really too bad it's linux only.

You can use RDP, it's already installed in Fedora. (Assuming Gnome/Wayland), you go to Settings > Sharing, and enable Remote Desktop. It'll generate a new password for access by default. I only use with MS Remote Desktop from a Mac, but I think people generally like Remmina as a client.

MobaXterm on Windows or Remmina on Linux. Remmina should also work on Windows through WSL. Though haven't tested it that way
