Answer (1 of 2): MobaXterm is powerful tool which provides variety of SSH tools/options like SSH,SCP,RDP,VNC,Tunnel etc., so people haven’t used this tool, can’t answer this question.

Since the XQuartz X11 package clobbers Apple's X11.app, their software update will clobber the XQuartz X11 package. OS X Software Updates have included some of the work done by the XQuartz project, but for various reasons, Apple cannot ship the latest and greatest version offered by the XQuartz site. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple shipped with OS X versions 10.5 through 10.7. One of the important reason, am looking for MobaXterm kind of tool/software in MAC is, it has inbuilt Xwindow (GUI) configured, so there is no need to use VNC etc., which is very useful for copy/paste to GUI. As i landed into same problem that switched to MAC, couldn’t find any tool similar to MobaXterm.

MobaXterm is powerful tool which provides variety of SSH tools/options like SSH,SCP,RDP,VNC,Tunnel etc., so people haven’t used this tool, can’t answer this question.
