Re: show what I type in another window

GNU Screen is for you.

http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/manual/

Look for the '-x' option (man screen<cr>/-x).


But be carefull because this way all clients could write to your terminal.

I know there is another application that do the same but in read-only
mode, but I don't remember its name :-/


I hope this could help you.

Regards.
