The mosh shell and LMDE 13

Installing mosh on LMDE 13

As an alternative to Ubuntu Precise Pangolin the speedy Linux Mint Debian Edition 13 is a very worthy distribution. A fantastic installation process is supplemented by a clean desktop that screams attention to detail. Even in a VM environment it's so quick to respond that it's become my primary personal development box.

These are some quick notes to help you install the mosh mobile shell. An alternative secure remote shell. It's the perfect companion for those times that you are remotely logged in via an unreliable connection.
  • sudo apt-get install git libncurses5-dev automake zlib1g-dev protobuf-compiler libprotoc-dev libprotobuf-dev libutempter-dev libio-pty-perl
Then just follow the instructions for "Compiling from Git" at http://mosh.mit.edu/.
$ git clone https://github.com/keithw/mosh
$ cd mosh
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

... and that's all it takes to have a working mosh shell.
