With Xshell Build 0697 and Xmanager Enterprise Build 0687 we’ve added a couple options to aid in reducing clutter in your terminal window. If you have thousands of lines of scrollback buffer with a cluttered screen, you can easily clear the screen with the clear command, but the scrollback buffer still exists using up memory. With a program or other non-text file open, simply resetting your terminal may not be an option. We’ve now added the option to clear the…

Manage Your Sessions Concurrently There may be times when you would like to send your keyboard input to multiple or all open sessions instead of repetitively inputting commands to each individual one. This would be particularly useful in situations where you are monitoring several similar sessions such as clusters or your own personalized Xshell Tab Groups. With Xshell you can customize which sessions will receive keystrokes or your text input at any given time. Locate the text input bar at the…

Trying to paste a large string into Xshell at once can cause problems if connecting to an embedded device or system with limited network. Your server may not be able to handle the data transfer and subsequently drop data mid transfer to avoid exceeding its capacity. Using Xshell’s delayed input feature, you can stagger a pasted string at a user defined delay to ensure no data is dropped. Using this feature is rather simple and we’ll go over the steps…
