ScreenCSSH

ScreenCSSH is cluster management tool made to work with GNU screen. It is similar in concept to Cluster SSH. This tool is designed to work in a terminal-only environment where Xorg is not available (such as on a remote host). ScreenCSSH is written in BASH.

INSTALL/USAGE: Download and extract the tar.gz archive. Move the two scripts "screencssh" and "screencmd" into a directory within your $PATH (such as /usr/local/bin). Run "screencssh" to use the program (e.g., "screencssh server1.com server2.com server3.com").

KEY BINDINGS: The following key bindings are prefixed with CTRL-a (standard screen command).

• [ E ] – quit
• [ J ] – increase all server window sizes
• [ - ] – decrease current window size
• [ + ] – increase current window size
• [ = ] – set equal window sizes
• [ j ] – tab to window (down)
• [ k ] – tab to window (up)
• [ t ] – tab to window (top)
• [ b ] – tab to window (bottom)

SECURITY: Commands entered at the control prompt are passed through the system with a "screen" subprocess. If other users on the system can view the full system process list, they could technically be able to watch the text you enter.
