From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Today I released a new version of SSH Pilot, a user-friendly SSH connection manager.

SSH Pilot packs some useful features:

  • Built-in terminal
  • Dual-pane SFTP file manager
  • SCP file transfers
  • SSH Key generation and transfer
  • Secure storage for SSH secrets using libsecret and automatic login
  • Server grouping and color taggings
  • and more

It is available for major linux distributions, and there is a Flatpak that should run on any distro with Flatpak support.
