Isn't that called remote desktop?


Terminals can have mouse support. It works with some TUI apps like vim.


All the terminal software with mouse support I've found so far just messes with things, I wasn't aware that people actually use this (e.g. in vim enabling mouse support messes with the yank buffer and doesn't let me select things for clipboard copying anymore, I immediately turn that off in setups where some overzealous maintainer default-enabled it). The amount of software with support is very low anyway, so if one really wants to use a mouse, remote desktop might serve one better.


?? Sounds like mosh is the only program in the stack that doesn't support this
