| 5 | +Uses [TabFS](https://github.com/osnr/TabFS) and |
| 6 | +[gilderlabs/ssh](https://twitter.com/jf/status/1352012743600062465). |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +Set your TabFS mount path in `tabssh.go`. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +``` |
| 11 | +$ go run tabssh.go |
| 12 | +``` |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +and |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +``` |
| 17 | +$ ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no localhost -p 2222 |
| 18 | +``` |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +(you can set a fun hostname in `~/.config/ssh`: |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | +Host last-focused-tab.safari.localhost |
| 23 | + HostName localhost |
| 24 | + Port 2222 |
| 25 | + LogLevel ERROR |
| 26 | + StrictHostKeyChecking no |
| 27 | + UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null |
| 28 | +``` |

| 31 | +## ideas |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +a hack would be to make it dispatch to tab depending on provided username, like how |
| 34 | +[their Docker |
| 35 | +example](https://github.com/gliderlabs/ssh/tree/master/_examples/ssh-docker) |
| 36 | +dispatches to process (ssh `jq@localhost` runs `jq`) |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +but really, the _right_ way to do it would be to make it so that |
| 39 | +`safari.localhost` is a hostname that actually lets you talk to |
| 40 | +Safari, and `last-focused-tab.safari.localhost` is a hostname that |
| 41 | +actually lets you talk to the last focused tab. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +could you make a virtual network or something to do that? (where each |
| 44 | +tab is a host on the virtual network) I mean, that feels |
| 45 | +philosophically right; [tabs are virtual |
| 46 | +computers](https://twitter.com/rsnous/status/1352014584731734016), so |
| 47 | +maybe they should be network-addressable like your real computer is |
| 48 | +(and maybe other things should be network-addressable that way too -- |
| 49 | +individual applications, documents, etc). |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +like 'port numbers' feel kinda like they unnaturally promote one level |
| 52 | +of computer, the physical one on your desk that has a Wi-Fi chip, and |
| 53 | +hide the computers nested inside it (such as each of your browser |
| 54 | +tabs) |
