Add more ascii art to the bash manager in the src/asciiArt folder. Ideally all the ascii art should be between 5-15 characters high.

Since the readme was initially created a bunch of things were added to this project. It would be nice to update the readme to explain everything. Rather than using the text grabs of the script running, it should use screenshots since it would look a lot nicer.

Create new ASCII art for this terminal-based quotes manager. Desired ASCII art should be between [0. 14] lines long and should have tick marks leading out to the mouth to a speech bubble. A good example is:
https://github.com/jrtechs/bash_manager/blob/master/src/asciiArt/dolphin.txt

I want the ability to have the option to add more ssh drives but not have them mount as default.

Refactor Code To

• Just have a general list of ssh drive mounts
• Include ability to easily mount a single drive like the ssh manager
• Create a separate section to keep track of which drives get mounted automatically

Refactor the quotes.py file to specify the ascii file to use.
ie:

//this will do a random ascii animal
quote hello

//this will use the ascii art in src/asciiArt/roo.txt
quote hello --roo

After this is done, the batsay.py and roosay.py can be removed from the repository.

Currently this program only has the option to use roo when making a quote. It would be nice to have more options when printing quotes to the terminal.

Current Ideas

• Microsoft Clippy
• A Tiger
• Some Cat

Remove ASCII art in src/aciiArt that is taller that 14 lines.
Desired ascii art should be between [4, 14] line long.
Acii art that is any larger is hard to view in a standard terminal.

Background

Currently this program only stores the user name and host of the computer to connect to via ssh. When connecting, it attempts to use the default ssh identity file. It would be helpful if we could keep track of additional parameters such as which ssh key to use, which port to use, and any fancy port forwarding.

Plan

Keeping track of these additional parameters can be done with a ssh-config file. See this article for more information on ssh config files.

Steps

• Create method which when invoked will prompt user for information desired to put in ssh config file.
• Create method to write the contents of the desired ssh config to the $HOME/.ssh/config file -- can be easily done with helper util function in module.py file.
• Write method to parse the ssh config file and pull the user name, host, and alias.
• From the contents pulled from the ssh config, update how the selection of hosts to connect to is being generated.
• Update how the remove host from system works.

Similar to the normal ssh connections, I want a sub menu that manages ssh local port forwards. Since ssh forwarding commands are rather lengthy to type, it would be nice to have this program store the common ones that are used.

Consider this command:

ssh -L 9000:localhost:5432 [email protected]

Will forward everything on your machine listening on localhost on port 9000 to the remote ssh connection on port 5432.

ssh -L 9000:imgur.com:80 [email protected]

This command will forward everything listening on your machine on port 9000 to imgur.com:80 via the ssh connection. After you execute that command, localhost:9000 will become imgur.

Things that should be done:

• Option to get to sub menu from main menu
• Mechanism to add new local forward configurations -- can be done in a text/json file or .ssh config file
• Way to select and remove forward configurations from file
• Way to select local forward and run the correct ssh command

Currently in my scripts folder I only have 1 script which optimizes images for websites.

I would like people to add their useful bash scripts to this folder.
