Install tmux or screen, use mosh instead of SSH, and login with a ssh key.

The time waste will be paid off by giving yourself a cross-networks, cross-client, always ready, instant on, saved state, scriptable replica of what you're doing on your computer by arranging windows.

I can mosh to my VPS and have tabs and windows and panels left running as I left them. The connection doesn't fall if I change WiFi hotspots or switch to my mobile hotspot. This works on my laptop, desktop, phone, raspberry, whatever the client.

And doesn't require hardware acceleration /s

Highly suggested.




You still want hardware acceleration in whatever you are running tmux in.


Er, I'm in the same boat as the parent. Also wondering what hardware acceleration does for a terminal emulator? Isn't all this just text?
