How to run it

• You must find the tty of the terminal you want to run the command on

• example for metasploit framework :

• 1st run msfconsole
• 2nd then run the following command from another terminal

• ps -aux |grep msfconsole | awk '{print$7}' | sed -n 1p

• in my case i got pts/0

to run a particular command from the current terminal to the msfconsole terminal just do it like this

• ./execute -n /dev/pts/0 show options

• where :
• execute= is the current bin in this git
• -n = new line after the command (this option simulates an enter after your text in other window
• show options = command to be execute on other terminal
