About
remoted lets you start hosts and guests.
Hosts are machine that can be remotely controlled.
Guests are machines that will send commands to hosts.
When a guest connects to a host a command line interface will be provided.
These machines can found each other by sending UDP messages with some help from udp-node.
You can run normal shell commands on the host and get their output.
You can open applications and documents.
And there are some built-in commands for you to enjoy, allowing you to send OS notifications and play audio.
Usage
Start a host on one machine with:
remoted --host [hostname]
Start a guest on a another machine instructing it to connect to your host:
remoted [hostname]
NOTE:
Hosts and guests will discover each other no matter which one is started first ;)

notify [message]: Sends OS notifications using https://github.com/mikaelbr/node-notifierexit: Kills host and guest.
