emacs is nice too in that if you are using tramp mode (/ssh:blah) to open a remote file you can create a remote eshell too. you can do diffs and merges between remote machines also. in the pre container/k8s days i worked at a place that did horizontal load balancing between 20ish remote VMs. the ability to have many eshell tiled on screen was so helpful. i also had some elisp that took advantage of tramp mode to very crudely do VM orchestration across the 20. i will shut up now because i don’t want to be that emacs guy.
