#### SSH, Telnet & local terminal manager with port-forwarding tunnels and SFTP

A lightweight Linux SSH/Telnet terminal, tunnel & SFTP session manager inspired
by PuTTY and MobaXterm workflows.
A Linux alternative to PuTTY and MobaXterm for managing remote shell sessions,
SSH tunnels, keypairs, and SFTP file transfers from a single workspace.

FEATURES (all really implemented):

* Session tree & multi-tab embedded VT100/ANSI terminal: save SSH, Telnet and
  Local Shell sessions in SQLite with folders; open multiple concurrent tabs
  backed by real Linux pseudo-terminals (pty) and the bundled OpenSSH client,
  or RFC 854 Telnet TCP sockets with NAWS/TTYPE negotiation.
* Command macro bar & MultiExec broadcast: trigger saved shell macros into the
  active PTY or broadcast keystrokes across all open terminal tabs.
* SSH key generator & inspector: generate Ed25519, RSA-4096 and ECDSA-521 keys
  via the bundled OpenSSH ssh-keygen, inspect SHA-256 fingerprints, and view or
  import entries from ~/.ssh/config and known\_hosts (with ssh-keyscan support).
* Port forwarding & tunnel manager: run and monitor real OpenSSH local (-L),
  remote (-R) and dynamic SOCKS5 (-D) tunnels as well as local TCP port
  forwarders with live byte counters.
* Integrated SFTP / FTP / FTPS file browser: dual-pane local and remote file
  manager with upload, download, mkdir, rename, recursive delete, and a
  resumable transfer queue.

SNAP NOTES: to allow reading existing keys and host definitions in ~/.ssh,
connect the ssh-keys interface:
sudo snap connect ssh-session-manager:ssh-keys

Disclaimer: Independent open-source project, not affiliated with Simon Tatham
(PuTTY) or Mobatek (MobaXterm). Does not include a built-in X11 server or RDP
client.
