forward Get started with Xpra
To start an application (a simple xterm in this example) on a remote system and display it on your local machine, simply run:
xpra start ssh://USERNAME@HOST/ --start=xterm
This is similar to ssh -X, except that performance will be noticeably better and you can disconnect and re-connect to this session as many times as you like. (obviously xpra must be installed on your server host)
To re-connect or to connect to this session from another machine, use the attach command (you can also use the xpra_launcher GUI):
# xpra est fait pour cela
