What problem does it solve?

nc excels at reverse connections handling but couldn't handle multiple connections on single port/terminal. This tool offers a more convenient way to manage and switch between numerous sessions/clients using a single port and terminal. This simplifies the handling of multiple connections.

Quick Start

Download the latest version from the release section. For better experience, you can use rlwrap along with it

$ [rlwrap] ./tcphost <PORT>

Example of usage

Show help menu

!

Show active session list

!list

If you want to switch b/w active sessions, e.g. switch to session 2

!2

Clear the terminal screen

!clear

Upgrade to tty

!tty py          // using python
!tty py3         // using python3
!tty perl        // using perl

Close the current session (i.e. disconnect from the current session/client)

!close

Quit the program

!quit

How to build

1: CMake

$ cd tcpHostCLI_linux && mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DTARGET_ARCH=x86 ../ && make    //  for 32-bit version
$ cmake -DTARGET_ARCH=x64 ../ && make    // for 64-bit version

2: Using g++

$ cd tcpHostCLI_linux && mkdir build
$ g++ -std=c++17 -pthread -I include/ -m32 src/*.cpp -o build/tcphost_x86    // for 32-bit version
$ g++ -std=c++17 -pthread -I include/ -m64 src/*.cpp -o build/tcphost_x64    // for 64-bit version
