Curious what folks are using to organise their remote connections? I liked WinSSHTerm and have tried replacing it with Remote Desktop Manager, but it seems a bit broken (fonts look terrible in a terminal, sftp doesn’t work, RDP sort of works, but it’s not great).

RDP is not a must. Folders, ssh, key auth, sftp and scp are the main things I’m looking for. Currently considering Remmina but though I would check if ppl have strong views on this topic before trying the next app.

I’m using cinnamon with mint 22.

      And most secondary apps, e.g. git and sshfs, even Gigolo, recognize these aliases. It’s the best.

      This is the way. Even if you have a lot, it’s not hard to pull up a list of options;

      ❯ cat ~/.ssh/config | grep 'Host ' | awk '{print $2}'

      Or you can make it interactive;

      ❯ ssh $(cat ~/.ssh/config | grep 'Host ' | awk '{print $2}' | fzf)

        Meh. ssh<space><tab><tab> does the same.

        Also, useless use of cat. And grep.

        awk '/Host / {print $2}' ~/.ssh/config | fzf

        Or just use completion: press tab once or twice after the ssh command (and a space). If that doesn’t work, install the bash-completion package.

          Shell completion ftw. Once you grok the double-tab you might start using the terminal more than your filemanager.

      For a shared set of hosts at work, you can check a shared SSH include file into got so changes to the cluster can be updated in one place.
