i need 2 programs
1 to allow you to remotely execute shell commands
and the other to listen for download without taking control away from the shell
i am using these 2 in a computercraft hacking arena in the lualand server
not malicous in any way
just something to have fun and win prizes in the arena

If you want to access your shell remotely, Lyqyd's nsh is probably what you want.

Not sure what you mean by "listen for download without taking control away from the shell".

Basically this:


function waitForProgram()
  --# Listen on some wireless channel for a computer sending the porgram
end

function runShell()
  shell.run("shell") --# Runs the 'shell' program
end

parallel.waitForAny(runShell,waitForProgram) --# Runs both at the same time
