Twin - a Textmode WINdow environment
Version 0.9.0
Twin is text-based windowing environment with mouse support, window manager, terminal emulator, networked clients and the ability to attach/detach mode displays on-the-fly.
It supports a variety of displays:
plain text terminals: Linux console, twin's own terminal emulator, and any termcap/ncurses compatible terminal;
X11, where it can be used as a multi-window xterm;
itself (you can display a twin on another twin);
twdisplay, a general network-transparent display client, used to attach/detach more displays on-the-fly.
Currently, twin is tested on Linux (i386, x86_64, ARM, ARM64, PowerPC, Alpha, Sparc), on Mac OS X (x86_64) and on FreeBSD (i386, x86_64). I had yet no chance to seriously test it on other systems.
The following screenshot shows an example of twin with various clients:
