Bug#826775: RFP: texttop -- A fully interactive X Linux desktop rendered in TTY and streamable over SSH



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name : texttop
Version : 0.0
Upstream Author : Thomas Buckley-Houston <tom at tombh dothere co dot uk>
* URL : https://github.com/tombh/texttop
* License : GPLv3
Description :
  Texttop is simply a way to have the power of a remote server running a 
desktop, but interfaced through the simplicity of a terminal and very low 
bandwidth.
  It uses MoSH to further reduce the bandwidth and stability requirements of 
the connection. Mosh offers features like automatic reconnection of dropped 
connections and diff-only screen updates. Also, other than SSH or MoSH, 
Texttop doesn't require a client like VNC. But of course another big reason 
for Texttop is that it's just very cool geekery.
