Open up Terminal on your mac. That's what ssh is [1]. You have a command-line on a different computer. [1] vastly simplified. Now open up X11 on your mac, installed via the developer tools. Anything you run inside X11 [2] (such as gitk or firefox) can be run from an external machine, with the graphics showing up on your computer but running on the external machine. [2] again, vastly simplified. > He asked if we were thinking of using it for something like weblily and my > tentative response was no. Agreed. I think the most we'd use it for would be LSR. I don't think we should give ssh logins to developers for testing patches; that should be done locally otherwise it could easily lead to major headaches [3] for whoever's handling this. [3] then again, it's not me so if you want to try it, go ahead. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
