For me you can't beat the combination of Alfred [0] and the SSH workflow [1].

[0] http://alfredapp.com

[1] https://github.com/isometry/alfredworkflows/tree/master/net....



Or (in Alfred) just type:

>ssh [host]

If you keep your ~/.ssh/config up to date and can remember your host names, I find it quicker to do that than bothering with the workflow.


I had no idea you could execute commands from Alfred that way. Top tip! Thanks.


I don’t think alfred does that by default, does it? Even with the powerpack.


Assuming it just runs it as a shell command (and fires up a shell in doing so), that would work.


Ahh ok, I misread what he was saying! Missed that > at the beginning.


You should probably add some install instruction for the workflow, because I have no idea where to start.


Just download the "ssh.alfredworkflow" file and run it, it should automatically be imported to Alfred's Worflows: https://github.com/isometry/alfredworkflows/blob/master/ssh....


This is what I'm currently doing.

* Alfred for '>' command * an alias for each server. * Autologin using ssh keys.
