MobaXterm: powerful X11/SSH/etc. client for Windows


This post is over 5 years old, it may be out of date.

MobaXterm is now available on the S-disk. It is a powerful and easily usable alternative for X11/SSH software like Xming, Xwin32, WinSCP and Putty. From the MobaXterm website: “MobaXterm is an enhanced terminal for Windows with an X11 server, a tabbed SSH client and several other network tools for remote computing (VNC, RDP, telnet, rlogin). MobaXterm brings all the essential Unix commands to Windows desktop, in a single portable exe file which works out of the box.” The support of OpenGL could also be a reason to start using MobaXterm. If you use it professionally, you should consider subscribing to MobaXterm Professional Edition. We already reported that the support of X-win32 ends January 31, 2014. If you still need to switch, MobaXterm is a good choice.
