Crate afar 

afar — operate shells from afar.

afar adds working backends to elegance::MultiTerminal: a local shell over a PTY, and remote sessions over SSH. The widget you actually show in your egui app is LiveMultiTerminal, a thin wrapper that owns one or more backends and pumps bytes between them and the existing line-buffered scrollback model.

See terminal_crate_plan.md in the repo root for the full design.
