shy
shy is a lil console ui for quickly connecting to an ssh server. It
parses your ~/.ssh/config file and displays all your "Host" patterns,
allowing you to quickly select one using a readline-ish prompt.
install
If you have cargo installed, installation is a breeze:
cargo install shy
Assuming you have ~/.cargo/bin in your $PATH and a ~/.ssh/config
file, you can now run:
shy
To connect more quickly to a host, you may want to launch in search mode:
shy -s
arch linux
shy can be installed from available AUR packages using an AUR helper. For example,
yay -S shy
