[OT] Org spotted in the wild

[OT] Org spotted in the wild

[Loris Bennett]

Hi,

While looking for a solution to the problem of emacs hanging if the SSH
connection to remote files goes down, I came across this website:

http://mosh.mit.edu/

which is about an alternative for SSH, but has a
screenshot of Org on its frontpage.

Cheers

Loris

Did you find one (a solution, that is)? This has been bothering me for a
while as well...

Following this article 

http://blogs.perl.org/users/smylers/2011/08/ssh-productivity-tips.html

I'm currently trying out the following settings in .ssh/config

,-----------------------
| TCPKeepAlive no
| ServerAliveInterval 60
| ServerAliveCountMax 10
`-----------------------

Seems to be OK, but the problem is fairly sporadic anyway and normally
I'm on a less flaky network, so it might be a little difficult to say if
that is really the solution.

However, looking at 

,---------------
| man ssh_config
`---------------

setting TCPKeepAlive to 'no' seems like a good idea.

Cheers,

Loris

Right, well my connection problems usually come from suspending my
laptop and/or moving it to a different network, so it seems to me this
change would probably be counter productive in my case... But thanks
anyway, and that SSH productivity thing does seem to be useful. :)

I must admit that I designed the new website based on the one above.

The result is not as neat, but close enough.

I've been using mosh for a couple weeks now, and I'm really happy about
it: connections survive changing ip addresses and the laptop going to
sleep. I find it quite robust.

Does mosh work as a drop-in replacement for SSH in emacs (tramp) usage
as well?

mosh.mit.edu was built with the Twitter Bootstrap CSS framework.
See http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/.

Beautiful!  I'll still to the current design (with upcoming minor
improvements) mainly because I want to generate the orgmode.org
website with .org files.  But bootstrap really looks like something 
I can reuse for other projects.  

Thanks for the link!

It does not seem to be the case yet, but it looks like tramp developers
asked mosh developers about it:
