Looks interesting. What protocol does it use? Mind sharing a URL?

@blinry Reminds me of ARexx (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARexx), a relative of REXX that was used on AmigaOS to let applications talk to one another and puppeteer them if the applications implementeded a respective interface.

@blinry How are they communicating? Source? Is it usable over the network?

afiestas, 22 days ago

@blinry is this using some kind of standard protocol? It has always frustrated me how walled these gardens are

mangoiv, 22 days ago

@afiestas I don’t know if this does but tmate does-ish. Namely tmux.

The project is called https://github.com/ethersync/ethersync It's in an early state.

You can learn more about the protocol between the editor and the daemon here: https://github.com/ethersync/ethersync/blob/main/docs/daemon-editor-protocol.md#editor-to-daemon

Between peers, it's currently a plain https://automerge.org sync protocol, but we plan to extend it with ephemeral communication, like cursor positions.

@blinry @bytter @skyr Don’t know much about this subject personally, but you might want to check out SubEthaEdit. It is quite mature and has been open-sourced some years ago. Although it is written for macOS UI, of course it uses a general, IP-based protocol.
