Importing, sync & backup

Importing ~/.ssh/config

Termini reads the Host entries in your SSH config — HostName, User, Port, IdentityFile and ProxyJump — and adds them as hosts. A host that uses ProxyJump is linked to its jump host.

Import from the first-launch screen, or later with Import ~/.ssh/config. Termini needs access to ~/.ssh to read the file.

The free version imports up to its 5-host limit; Termini Pro imports everything.

Sync between Macs

Settings → General → Sync keeps your hosts, snippets and workspaces the same on several Macs:

• iCloud — through your iCloud account; nothing else to set up.
• Shared folder — any folder that syncs between your Macs (Dropbox, a network share, Syncthing). Choose the same folder on each Mac.

Sync Now syncs immediately; Stop Syncing turns it off. The pane shows when it last synced. Deleting something on one Mac deletes it on the others.

Passwords and key passphrases are not synced: they stay in each Mac’s Keychain, so enter them once on each Mac.

Backup

Settings → General → Backup:

• Export… writes a file with your hosts, snippets and workspaces. It contains no passwords or passphrases.
• Import… reads one back. Anything already in Termini is skipped, so importing the same backup twice adds nothing.
