After buying a laptop, there is a problem of finding a convenient Linux-like console in Windows environment for ssh operation. The main criterion for me is the ability to use tabs, tabbed browsing in a taskbar pisses me off. After a long search, I came to the conclusion that windows is windows, and linux is linux (very trite, I know), it turns out that you have to use the console from linux. But how to implement it without changing the OS? There are several exits, but I stopped at
Xming .
As the
wiki tells us, Xming is
X Window System Microsoft Windows (XP/2003/Vista). Xming Xorg (X11R6.9) - MinGW Pthreads-Win32.
Unlike other similar developments, with the help of Xming it is possible to run separate applications from a remote unix machine, each application is a separate windows-window.
Here is how it looks from me:
First of all, we need to choose what we want, run the program or start the X server:

Next, specify which program to run and where:

And voila, we have gnome-terminal running on Windows Vista:

Either Doplhin:

Of course this is all workable if there is a linux car with ssh access at hand)
