Teliva is a text-mode platform for disseminating ?sandboxed applications. In this respect it resembles a web browser (without markup or a DOM for documents). The sandboxing model is more flexible than ?web browsers.

Relevance to permacomputing

It tries to nudge computer owners to think about what permissions they should grant untrusted applications, and to learn a little bit of programming to do so. It also encourages owners to look inside application code and provides a trivial edit-run debug cycle to help them make changes to untrusted applications.
