项目历史

Julien Robert of Abyssoft originally authored Teleport as closed-source software. After its discontinuation, the original author released the source publicly; community maintainers subsequently kept the core client, server, and pasteboard features working. John Britton is identified by the project as its current maintainer.

采用历史

Teleport served users with multi-Mac desks who wanted to operate several computers from one keyboard and pointing device. The current README characterizes it as a legacy project maintained on an ad-hoc basis, with priority given to keeping its core features working on current macOS releases.

使用方式

Install Teleport on each Mac, configure one system to control others and the remote systems to accept control, then move input between arranged displays. Clipboard synchronization is a supported core feature; historical file transfer, encryption, and status-display features are described as unsupported and potentially removable.

为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Teleport is a classic package-manager utility: a focused native application that replaces physical KVM switching with local-network software. It also has an unusual lifecycle for a cask, having moved from discontinued closed-source software to a publicly maintained GPL project.
