> Your comment makes some great arguments about just how awful the traditional ways of working in the terminal are. IMHO it's not that awful and 99% of the time you're doing other things anyway. > e.g. remembering to redirect output to a file. But when you forgot to do that, it's not the end of the world, just a little inconvenience involving the mouse. > a lot of the methods you outlined don't work well across SSH. Which ones and why not? The only one I can think of is xdg-open and that can work with `ssh -X`.
