#TIL https://github.com/nelhage/reptyr

A tool to attach a long-running process from a new terminal. For example - a lost ssh session.

How cool is that?

I mean we all know about screen, but I bet you sometimes forget to run it. And when you do, #reptyr becomes a lifesaver

TIL about #reptyr which can transfer running processes to a different tty! Magic!

Very handy when screwing up one's #tmux configuration, but also when a process is running longer than planned and you want to run it in a terminal multiplexer after all...

I can't stress enough how cool of a project is #reptyr

Forgot to run your slow program in a screen (or tmux?). Reptyr will move it wherever you want :D

So I want to check the output from some long running process from time to time. The process collects environ data and is running on a headless RPI with a tiny LCD screen. I started the process in one SSH session and now need to check the screen output in a diff session.But how? It's a new SSH session! Well, OSS to the rescue! I found this amazing tool -- repyter -- it let's you attach output from a running process to your current SSH session ... brilliant! https://github.com/nelhage/reptyr
