anything file transfer.<br></blockquote><div><br>Thank you for your opinion. I am not looking for anything regarding file transfer. Let me try to demostrate the requirement again. Thinking this as a file transfer use case is the first step to wrong direction and falling back old workflows which I am here trying to replace with something better. File transfers have been working reliably 30 years now. However, this is a matter of user interaction I kindly ask you think outside a box for a while: <br>
<br>1. I am on a shell on the remote server via mosh (note: I don't want to go to a local computer to start some application to tell it to connect to this server and then browse to the file)<br><br>2. I type in command "redit file.txt"<br>
<br>3. I want redit to contact mosh session to send to signal to my local computer "Mikko wants run this command against this this file on this server" <br><br>I don't care how file is tranferred to my computer, tranferred to the server, or not tranferred at all. I just wan to have a channel for this signaling mechanism, so that local applications could take action on remote commands / signals.<br>
<br>Please tell me if this is not right place to discuss about such matters then what is.<br></div><div> <br>Thanks,<br>Mikko<br clear="all"></div></div><br>-- <br>Mikko Ohtamaa<br><a href="http://opensourcehacker.com" target="_blank">http://opensourcehacker.com</a><br>
