feature request: terminal version

[rweng]

Not all games support minimizing. It would be nice to be able ssh into a machine and run the scanner from the terminal.

Only badly implemented games force fullscreen and not allow command-tabbing out :(.

That may very well be the case, but there are in fact some rather popular games that do not let you tab out. It is sometimes a result of the game binding the tab key to an in game function.

It's most likely the result of the game capturing the display. A remote version would be useful for this; maybe some day..

Yeah, The Cheat implements a network server/client with Bonjour for simplicity.

A remote version would be very very helpful. In the mean time I managed to attach a VNC client to the virtual display of another user and then launch Bit Slicer as the local "machine display" user. This allowed me to attach Bit Slicer to the machine display user's process even though I was logged into a virtual display as a different user.

It's highly inelegant, a remote Bit Slicer client would be fantastic for all of those poorly implemented games.

Just a reminder for all commenters here: Although this implementation can be a good idea, it could also open ways to bad usage of the App, risking ban from apple.

Also, most of the games that capture fullscreen has options for windowed mode in their configs, usually when the game is in windowed mode the TAB+CMD option has preference over the game. You could also change the key bindings on the game to free the TAB+CMD key-combo to work.

CHEERS!
