The story
last updated 2017-01-18 In my migration to linux, I wanted a shell
script that can read the Microsoft rdp file format. I still need to connect to
my Windows systems. There are multiple packages that can do the task of
connecting (I went with xfreerdp), but none that can intrinsically read the
rdp files that the mstsc tool can save. So, I wrote one. I'm sure someday I
will have a github or gitlab account for hosting my stuff. But for now, here's
some Wordpress code for you.
You can find this rdp.sh
script
in my bgscripts package on github. Go check it out!
