Hello Bradley, oh, thanks for the quick help! :) But I think this is slightly different of what I had in mind. With your solution, Eric runs on box2, right? (and only the GUI gets shown on my PC) But then I would need a X-Server on box2, it may not be as fast as box1 (especially if there is a slow internet connection) and it would look quite different from what I have on my desktop PC. Also, it may not be installed there (ok, I could do that, but this is inconvenient). I rather thought about running Eric completely on box1 (also saving the program which I am writing there), but when I press “run program” or “debug program”, it will then get transfered to box2 and running there. The actual responses etc. are in the shell window of Eric on box1. So basically Eric itself is still on box1, but only the program which is debugged runs on box2. I am actually thinking of this because I want to buy a Raspberry Pi but do not have any screen here which I can attach it to. I can of course connect to its terminal with SSH and share files with Samba or NFS, but whenever I write a program, I would have to switch back to the SSH terminal and start it there (which would then leave me without a debugger). I cannot really debug the application on my desktop PC because it does not have the GPIO ports (which I want to use). On the other hand, I cannot use the Raspberry to run Eric because it does not have a screen (Also, it would not be so convenient because you always have to change between normal desktop and Raspberry) and presumably is a bit slower. If I used the Raspberry for something more specific (home automation), I would perhaps not install an X-Server to make it more stable. Therefore your solution may not work. Also, my web server, to which I can connect with SSH, does not have a X-Server. I tried your solution but it doesn't work :( Hans _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list Eric@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
