10 <p>Mosh is a remote terminal application that supports intermittent
11 connectivity, allows roaming, and provides speculative local echo
12 and line editing of user keystrokes.</p>
14 <p>It aims to support the typical interactive uses of SSH, plus:</p>
16 <ul>
17 <li>Mosh keeps the session alive if the client goes to sleep and
18 wakes up later, or temporarily loses its Internet connection.</li>
20 <li>Mosh allows the client and server to "roam" and change IP
21 addresses, while keeping the connection alive. Unlike SSH, Mosh
22 can be used while switching between Wi-Fi networks or from Wi-Fi
23 to cellular data to wired Ethernet.</li>
25 <li>The Mosh client runs a predictive model of the server's behavior
26 in the background and tries to guess intelligently how each
27 keystroke will affect the screen state. When it is confident in
28 its predictions, it will show them to the user while waiting for
29 confirmation from the server. Most typing and uses of the left-
30 and right-arrow keys can be echoed immediately.</li>
31 </ul>
33 <p>As a result, Mosh is usable on high-latency links, e.g. on a
34 cellular data connection or spotty Wi-Fi. In distinction from
35 previous attempts at local echo modes in other protocols, Mosh
36 works properly with full-screen applications such as emacs, vi,
37 alpine, and irssi, and automatically recovers from occasional
38 prediction errors within an RTT. On high-latency links, Mosh
39 underlines its predictions while they are outstanding and removes
40 the underline when they are confirmed by the server.</p>
42 <p>Mosh does not support X forwarding or the non-interactive uses of SSH,
43 including port forwarding.</p>
