Issue

I wish we can add rz sz support. It means Hyper can open a file open or save as dialog when we use rz or sz. Something like iTerm2, though it is not supported officially, someone give an alternative solution: https://github.com/mmastrac/iterm2-zmodem

What is rz sz? 🤔

[leovan]

rz and sz are commands of lrzsz package (see: https://ohse.de/uwe/software/lrzsz.html). When we can access a server directly, we usually use scp to transfer files. But when we access a server through a jump server, rz and sz are really useful commands for file transfer. According to the manual, it uses XMODEM, YMODEM ZMODEM file transfer protocols. But sorry I don't know much about how it works.

Sorry I cannot write nodejs codes, but I found a repo may help with this problem, https://github.com/FGasper/zmodemjs

Nice! Using that you can write a plugin to hyper that enables it. @chabou do we have a way to add custom plugins to xterm via a hyper plugin?

Awesome idea

I modified the hyper-status plugin and support the interactive upload and receive similar to rz/sz. It's an ugly patch, that requires ssh enable the ControlMaster option or use ssh public key authentication . hyper-statusline
