TCP/IP Multishell
________________________________________________________________
TCP/IP AXEL Platine Terminal 79
- For a consistent configuration, 'the value of the ‘telnet session
number' multiplied by the 'multi-shell view number' must not exceed
8.
9.3 - USING MULTISHELL
The tcpmsh command can be invoked either at the UNIX prompt or from a
script (e.g. .profile file), and can be followed by possible options (see
section 9.4).
9.3.1 - Running tcpmsh
To run tcpmsh, the syntax is:
$ tcpmsh [-options] <CR>
Section 9.4 describes each option.
When the AXEL multi-shell program is run, help messages are displayed
(tcpmsh version, maximum number of views, etc.)
The program creates only the first view (view 1). A pseudo-terminal is
automatically associated with this view.
This view is a copy, of the shell within which the tcpmsh program was run, and
the .profile script is executed for this view.
9.3.2 - Creating a View or Moving to a View
To create a new view or to move to an existing view, use the following
keystrokes:
- <Ctrl><F1>: view 1
- <Ctrl><F2>: view 2
- ... ...
- <Ctrl><F8>: view 8
