Fluentterminal: List of ssh connections

Created on 5 Jun 2020  路  4Comments  路  Source: felixse/FluentTerminal

Greetings!
Please add the ability to open a list of connections, now as far as I understand it is possible to open a saved ssh connection only using hot keys?
Maybe there is already a similar issue, but I did not find it.

I understand, but it's still not as convenient as if there was a complete list
Just as an idea, if you think this is not necessary - it鈥檚 sad, but, yeah

You can use Quick launch (Ctrl+Alt+T) by default. If you start typing the profile name it will suggest matching profiles

Aha. Thanks for explaining. I will start using that.

In terms of UI design, I think of things like "Choose from this list of profiles" as a "typical user" (or "new user") feature, and things like "Start typing and it will autocomplete" as a power user one. For example, look at the Start menu.

Besides, sometimes one can't remember the name of a profile... or it's simply quicker to point and click than to type: What if you have production1 through production20...? By the time you hit the arrow key a million times to get to the one you want, you could have clicked it on a list a lot faster. (And yes, I know if you typed prod and then went to the mouse you could still click it... but that defeats the purpose of not making the user have to switch back and forth.)

Bonus: If you display a list of profiles to choose from, it gives you the opportunity to display the associated shortcuts for them. ;-)

Next version will list all profiles in the new tab/window menu
