Feature request: parse and understand globs in Host lines
I just discovered sshs, and it looks like it could replace my previously cobbled together system, really neat!
But, I have a bunch of entries in my ~/.ssh/config that look like this:
Host prefix-*
HostName %h.example.edu
ProxyJump me@proxy-host
It would be amazing if sshs could understand the prefix-* syntax and match it when I type prefix-host1, or prefix-host2.
Also, parsing and understanding Match Host otherprefix-* would be nice too.
Hi! Glad you like it ❤
To be sure to understand, you want prefix-* to be displayed in the list as "prefix-host1" when you type "prefix-host1" in the search bar?
It might make more sense if the list displayed prefix-* even if I have typed prefix-host1 in the search. That way I would know, exactly, which section of my ssh config will be used. But as long as I can type prefix-host1 and the connection uses my Host prefix-* ssh config section, I would be happy.
Hi quantumsheep,
With more use, I realized that rather than match globs, it's easiest for my use case to simply return what I typed if there are no matches. This solves my request above. I have added it to my sort by Levenshtein distance PR.
