The GUI for browsing files in PBS (for host backups) and in VE (for VMs) is nice, but sometimes you just want a shell.
proxmox-backup-client mount provides one, but that can be a pain to get working, especially when it's a LVM.
I wrote a tool that provides a TUI to let you pick a backup group, snapshot, and archive, then drops you into a shell where it has been mounted. Basic tools like scp are provided to help get your files back out. (Any ideas for other useful tools or changes welcome!)
I've tested on Linux and MacOS.
