Webif-Terminal (Shellinabox)

[el bandido]

A terminal can be installed in the webif of TNAP images by downloading and installing enigma2-plugin-extensions-webif-terminal. The webif terminal has limited capabilities due to its design, but some users may find it useful. A manual reboot is needed after installing this plugin.

A couple of screenshots are shown below, and an explanation from Claude Code is attached. Most questions about this plugin can probably be answered in the attached files.

Which version of TNAP gives that error? Webif-terminal is default installed in TNAP 7...

Clean/new installation v1506

Similarly, ps is no longer included by default in TNAP 7
