RDPme

RDPme is a simple TUI (Text User Interface) wrapper for launching Remote Desktop sessions using freerdp (and the xfreerdp command). It guides you through a series of dialogs to collect connection parameters (IP address, username, window size, and multi-monitor support) and then executes freerdp with your selections. Special thanks to Bill from Sudo Show with sharing his xfreerdp parameters passthrough! Features

TUI Wizard: Uses dialog to collect user inputs in a step-by-step interface.
Customizable Settings: Choose your RDP server IP, username, and window size.
Multi-monitor Support: Optionally configure multi-monitor setups.
Advanced Options: Automatically applies enhanced settings to improve performance.
Desktop Launcher: Option to create a desktop shortcut so you can launch your RDP session with a double-click.
