Drawterm

Installation

$ doas pkg_add drawterm

Debian have recently added drawterm-9front package, which can be used instead of compiling it:

$ sudo apt install drawterm-9front

If you want to compile it however:

$ sudo apt install libx11-dev libxt-dev
$ git clone git://git.9front.org/plan9front/drawterm 
$ cd drawterm
$ CONF=unix make

$ PASS=$YOURPASSWORD drawterm -h cloud9p.org -a cloud9p.org

If you add $USER=username This will also pass on the username or use drawterm -u username to the above

Replace $YOURPASSWORD with your actual password.

Warning: Note that this disables numpad, and makes usage of old keys impossible without a X server restart

To use keyboard keys instead of a 3 button mouse in OpenBSD (on X11), first enable mousekeys:

$ doas pkg_add xkbset
$ xkbset m # enables mousekeys

open xev, press on keys you like to use as mouse keys, be aware, this might make lots of spam in terminal.

$ xev -event keyboard

My key codes are 67, 68, and 69 (F1, F2, and F3):

xmodmap -e "keycode 67 = Pointer_Button1"
xmodmap -e "keycode 68 = Pointer_Button2"
xmodmap -e "keycode 69 = Pointer_Button3"
