These days i quite like using shpool: https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool I used to use mosh, tmux before but always got annoyed how they broke scrolling , searching etc.. Especially when yakuake already provides half the functionality i…

[edit] The below is fixed ( https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool/pull/213/files ) upstream already, but is pending a release. I never heard of shpool, so just tried it. shpool completely breaks my PROMPT_COMMAND because it assumes that…

…tmux/screen, and I have a similar workflow requirements as you do. I'm currently using Shpool ( https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool ), which checks all the checkboxes you mention.

what is going on with this submodule URI? https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool/blob/v0.6.1/.gitmodules... I'm guessing based on the Change-Id in its commit message < https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool/commit/6cef5782e358716a... > this…

…it's trivial to build a Deb and manually install? Seems to have pretty modest install dependencies? https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool/blob/master/debian/cont...

Screen is discussed along with tmux in the [comparison section]( https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool#tmux-and-gnu-screen ) of the README. For most of the section I just say `tmux` because saying `tmux` or `screen` can get annoying and…

The readme contains a brief comparison to dtach: https://github.com/shell-pool/shpool?tab=readme-ov-file#dtac... IIUC, the main difference is that shpool maintains an in-memory copy of terminal state that it can use to re-draw after a…
