Is Termius the only cross platform emulator that includes Android as one of the platforms? It is quite good, in my limited experience, but too expensive for a hobbiest. I like that I can use my Linux desktop, MacOS laptop, and Android tablet/phone and the UX is the same across them all. The sync (trial for free, then charge) is great. But I'd be fine if it was something where I could DIY a sync method with something like Syncthing.
I'm aware of the likes of Alacritty, but no mobile app. And of course Termux is great for mobile, but no desktop versions.
It all boils down to wanting some sort of sync function either DIY or otherwise that includes hosts and SSH keys and while not as important, I do like the consistent UX between platforms. Is there something else to consider?
That is not something I had considered. That the config files are universal. So that helps quite a bit. I'll have to look into setting that up. I read elsewhere that some check theirs into github and sync from there.
SSH config is versatile, what I do is keep a simple
.ssh/configfile like this in every machine that isn't synced:Host * IdentitiesOnly no AddKeysToAgent yes IdentityFile "machinexyz-key-file" Include "~/Preferences/ssh/config"This file will simply configure it to use the IdentityFile of this machine and import another file that has the actual host definitions at
~/Preferences/ssh/config- that is the one I sync with Syncthing. This gives a nice way to customize settings for each machine (key path and whatnot) while keeping a global file with in sync between all of them.For reference here is
~/Preferences/ssh/config:Host * IdentitiesOnly no AddKeysToAgent yes host server1 hostname x.x.x.x user xxxxx port 1111 host server2 hostname x.x.x.x user xxxxx port 2222Oh that's very helpful, thank you.
