I like GNOME terminal because when you ssh to a server and run commands such as man init
then you can use the scroll wheel to navigate the man page.
Unfortunately my Windows SSH clients do not support this.
How can I find an SSH client that supports this short of operating a Linux VM?
Edit: I found that PuTTY supports this in vim when you use :set mouse=a
.
However, with commands like less
, I can only seem to get it to work in GNOME terminal. Surely there's a way to make this work with PuTTY also? I'm also open to suggestions of alternate Windows SSH clients.
Simple: use Linux :-) – Jakuje – 2016-01-12T18:11:15.837
That would be so cool! Unfortunately I cannot wash my hands of Windows just yet. (although I could try to get Windows in a VM, just don't feel like doing all that just yet) – Bryan Field – 2016-01-12T18:33:44.977
An alternative windows client would indeed be one way to get this. Another would be to just use a remote desktop client and remote into a real Gnome desktop from windows. – Warren P – 2016-11-30T18:43:08.617
