SSH question for people. A few years ago I learned how to suspend an ssh terminal connection (like ctrl-z for a regular app). I forgot how to do that or even how I would look it up. Anyone know?

You’re looking for the tilde key. Hit `~?` for a help menu in-session. You may need to precede that with a fresh carriage return to make it work.

Yes! That's it. “~ ctrl-z” Thank you!
The fresh carriage return is key. Took me awhile to understand it needed to be done on an unblemished input line.
I'm pretty sure this stacks for nested ssh sessions too. ~ current session, ~~ for it's parent, and so on. I might have this reversed.
I'd love to see a replacement for PuTTY. The '90 shareware vibe for handling the saved sites or for setting the password/key options ruins my mood every time I have to use it (often enough). Ironically, all the few others I saw try their best to copy its look and feel...
Even better-- get WSL, and you can get a full fledged linux system.
Packages for many distros, some I have never heard of. But not for Fedora?

On the latest windows , powershell comes with ssh built in. I dont use putty anymore, just open up powershell and ssh in Even better-- get WSL, and you can get a full fledged linux system.

Fine if all you need is one connection, but PuTTY has "bookmarks and settings management" on top of that.

Or MremoteNG (which is a wrapper around putty among other remote tools) on Windows
