.SH NAME
mosh-client \- client-side helper for mosh
.SH SYNOPSIS
MOSH_KEY=KEY
.B mosh-client
IP PORT
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmosh-client\fP is a helper program for the
.BR mosh(1)
remote terminal application.
\fBmosh\fP itself is a setup script that establishes an SSH
connection, runs the server-side helper \fBmosh-server\fP,
and collects the server's port number and session key.
\fBmosh\fP then executes \fBmosh-client\fP with the server's IP
address, port, and session key. \fBmosh-client\fP runs for
the lifetime of the connection.
The 22-byte base64 session key given by \fBmosh-server\fP is supplied
in the MOSH_KEY environment variable. This represents a 128-bit AES
key that protects the integrity and confidentiality of the session.
For constructing new setup wrappers for remote execution facilities
other than SSH, it may be necessary to invoke \fBmosh-client\fP
directly.

.SH NAME
mosh-server \- server-side helper for mosh
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mosh-server
[IP address to bind]
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmosh-server\fP is a helper program for the
.BR mosh(1)
remote terminal application.
\fBmosh-server\fP binds to a high UDP port and chooses an encryption
key to protect the session. It prints both on standard output,
detaches from the terminal, and waits for the \fBmosh-client\fP to
establish a connection via UDP.
\fBmosh-server\fP maintains an entry in the
.BR utmp(5)
file to indicate its process ID, whether the session is connected,
and the client's current IP address.
\fBmosh-server\fP exits when the client terminates the connection.

.SH NAME
mosh \- mobile shell with roaming and intelligent local echo
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mosh
.RI [ options ]
[user@]host
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmosh\fP (mobile shell) is a remote terminal application that
supports intermittent connectivity, allows roaming, and provides
speculative local echo and line editing of user keystrokes.
Compared with \fBssh\fP, \fBmosh\fP is more robust \(em its
connections stay up across sleeps and changes in the client's IP
address \(em and more responsive, because the protocol is tolerant of
packet loss and the client can echo most keystrokes immediately,
without waiting for a network round-trip.
\fBmosh\fP uses \fBssh\fP to establish a connection to the remote host
and authenticate with existing means (e.g., public-key authentication
or a password). \fBmosh\fP executes the unprivileged \fBmosh-server\fP
helper program on the server, then closes the SSH connection and
starts the \fBmosh-client\fP, which establishes a long-lived datagram
connection over UDP.
To improve responsiveness, \fBmosh\fP runs a predictive model of the
server's behavior in the background, trying to guess the effect of
each keystroke on the screen. It makes predictions for normal typing,
backspace, and the left- and right-arrow keys. When it is confident,
\fBmosh\fP displays the predictions without waiting for the
server. The predictive model must prove itself anew on each row of the
terminal and after each control character, so \fBmosh\fP avoids
echoing passwords or non-echoing editor commands.
By default, \fBmosh\fP shows its predictions only on high-latency
connections and to smooth out network glitches. (On longer-latency
links, the predicted cells are underlined until confirmed by the
server.) Occasional echo mistakes are corrected within a network
round-trip and do not cause lasting effect.
\fBmosh\fP does not support X forwarding or the non-interactive uses
of SSH, including port forwarding or sshfs. \fBmosh\fP works through
typical client-side network address translators but requires high-port
UDP to pass between client and server.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-\-client=\fIPATH\fP
path to client helper on local machine (default: "mosh-client")
.TP
.B \-\-server=\fIPATH\fP
path to server helper on remote machine (default: "mosh-server")
The server helper is unprivileged and can be installed in the user's
home directory.
.TP
.B \-\-predict=\fIWHEN\fP
Controls use of speculative local echo. WHEN defaults to `adaptive'
(show predictions on slower links and to smooth out network glitches)
and can also be `always` or `never'.
The MOSH_PREDICTION_DISPLAY environment variable controls this setting
permanently and can adopt the same three values.
Even on `always', \fBmosh\fP will only show predictions when it is
confident. This generally means a previous prediction on the same row
of the terminal has been confirmed by the server, without any
intervening control character keystrokes.
