...I'm working on some patches to the readline library so that it will leave the tty in cooked mode if it detects that EXTPROC is set on the tty. So a remote bash shell will defer all input processing to the local client. Will also be able to support command completion, if the tty session has VEOL set to <TAB>. Right now the tty mode handling on the client is a mess, it will need to be rationalized somehow to work cleanly with older raw-mode-only servers along with the linemode servers. Feedback and help would be greatly welcomed. -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp....

...back to the mux client first might become a bottleneck. But... this approach is making it harder to handle command-line completion. The idea is that the ssh client will know it should perform completion if the client and server both support linemode, linemode is active, and the remote tty has a VEOL character set to TAB. In that case, when the user types a completion character, the current line plus the tab will be sent to the remote, and the remote editor library will send back the list of possible completions. Then the local client's line editor library will take care of displaying t...
