Awesome! Just remember to use `ssh -a` (disabled SSH agent forwarding) when talking to untrusted systems. Edit to add: by default, ssh doesn't forward the SSH agent, but that can be changed by config. Doesn't hurt to add the -a.

Thanks. I didn't know that.

I thought by default it does not forward? But I guess better safe than sorry.

I'm at the opposite end of the cli taste spectrum (my PS1 is a single character), but I love this site.

Do you just have a super good memory, remembering where you are all the time? lol

Very bad memory!

But still, I don't need to be reminded upon each single command who am I, or where I am. It is better to display this information on the window title, or just run "pwd" in the rare cases where I feel lost.

This is what I come to HN to see - what a masterful and cool project. I'm literally dropping my plans today to make a project using this.

Please reply here with the Show HN link. I'd love to see what can be created in a day from the "never heard of it" state.

Totally not relevant but those rollerskates look amazing in the Skate logo. In fact, all logos look eerily real in a way. I wonder what makes that so, it's literally as if i could grab them from the screen and put them on my desk. Well done, gfx artist !!

I doesn't forward by default, but for the off-chance that some wildcard rules in your .ssh/config do enable it, it's better to be safe than sorry.
