- Build client, server and mux.
- Put client and mux (locally) somewhere on your
$PATHas summit-client and summit-mux. - Run the server (locally, optionally passing -t and the path to a custom script that will launch a terminal and invoke the command passed as arguments).
- Install summit-mux on any machine and in any container where you want to launch terminals.
Instead of launching $SHELL locally (from a terminal emulator, for example), launch,
summit-client $SHELL
Instead of $SHELL being the "entry point" on remote machines or in containers, use,
summit-mux $SHELL
On a remote machine or in a container, when you want a new terminal, type,
summit-mux -n
or,
summit-mux -n command
