MobaXterm is an enhanced terminal with an X server and a set of Unix commands (GNU/Cygwin) packaged in a single portable exe file. MobaXterm includes a great multitab native Windows terminal, a new X server based on X.Org for easily export your Unix/Linux display and a lot of new GNU Unix commands. You can also use some of the free plugins for extending MobaXterm capabilities.

Latest Changes
- New feature added: you can now "detach" any MobaXterm tab to an independant window. This window can be "pinned" in order to stay always on top of all other windows or to be displayed in "real" fullscreen (without displaying the task bar or title bar)

- Improved startup speed when using plugins: first time you start MobaXterm, a plugin index is created (file "MobaXterm.idx"). This speeds up MobaXterm plugins enumeration at startup

- You can now open an X11 tab. This allows X11 windows to be displayed into a single MobaXterm tab instead of being displayed outside MobaXterm, thanks to the powerful DWM window manager. This is also a replacement for the old Openbox feature that had dis

- XDMCP sessions are now displayed into a MobaXterm tab: XDMCP windows are now managed as a standard MobaXterm tab. If you want to display your Xdmcp sessions outside MobaXterm, you can still "detach" the corresponding tab

- New session settings for starting in normal tab, detached tab, maximized detached tab or fullscreen

- RDP features have been added such as full NLA protocol compliance, an improved toolbar and a new fullscreen mode

- Added tab title "hints" displayed when mouse goes over a tab whose name is truncated

- Corrected a bug when switching to "no skin" mode: in some cases, the new skin setting was not correctly saved

- Corrected a bug with the "chmod" and "chown" commands not setting file access permissions correctly. This also solves an old bug with "ls -al" not displaying the correct permissions on some filesystems

- Corrected a RDP focus bug

- Added basic SSH command completion (based on known hosts and users list)

- New setting for saving passwords to MobaXterm ini file and transfer previously saved passwords to the INI file (useful for transferring passwords from a computer to another)

- Corrected bugs when connecting to switch and router equipments using SSH

- Corrected a bug with terminal that did not render fonts correctly in some special cases and displayed only pink wide lines with nothing else written (this one was hard to find...)

- Improved fonts detection and choice: now the default MobaXterm font is not unpacked anymore before use, it is mapped in memory

- The X11 server now shows its DISPLAY as a small hint when you put the mouse cursor over the green "X" button

- Corrected a "File access denied" message that was displayed at MobaXterm startup when MobaXterm was previously started with admin priviledges

- Corrected a bug that occured at MobaXterm startup, when program was updated from a version older than v3.2

- Terminal logging can now be configured per session

- New keyboard shortcut for cycling through tabs (Ctrl+TAB by default)

- New "Duplicate tab" option

- Added a new command line option "-exec" for executing a command into MobaXterm bash shell (you can call for instance MobaXterm.exe -exec "date; sleep 1; echo 'This is a test'; echo 'Press any key to exit MobaXterm'; read i")

- PRO EDITION ONLY: Added a new button for showing stored passwords

- PRO EDITION ONLY: Added a new button for exporting stored passwords to a text file

Reviewing 3.0 (Aug 23, 2010)

The best alternative to Exceed, Xming or PuTTY : this program does everything in a small portable executable: X server, telnet, SSH, graphical SFTP...

I can't imagine connecting to my remote Linux server using another program.

A must have!!
