I don't know enough about ssh and terminals to know if it's possible to type "12345" and see "12345" echoed back to me but really what the remote session sees is "1245".
- diamondo25 5y agoYes, terminals usually echo back the characters. In our case this would be buffered and we could request the buffer. But that would still take some operations. Best way, usually, is to send a bunch of commands in a way you ensure proper order of execution (eg write a file, check checksum of file, execute file), and make sure you can pull the logs afterwards. Nowadays, links and systems get easier to work with, and you can sometimes have a literal TTY open to the system, like Reactor Hello World has ( https://reaktorspace.com/reaktor-hello-world/ https://reaktorspace.com/reaktor-hello-world/ ). However, this is over S-band, which is a 2Mbit/s link, so overhead for a stable TTY (or ethernet connection) is a lot less than using UHF/VHF.
