Session management support

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Is it possible to support saving historical session connections, because if there are dozens of sessions, it would be very time consuming to manually enter the address each time to connect remotely.

like this:

Is there a reason why your shell's command history is insufficient for this?

You can always make profiles for each of these. You can then also group them into folders in the newTabMenu.

There is the "auto-detect profiles from .ssh/config" feature (#9031), which never got finished (#15007). But that would auto-generate profiles from the hosts in .ssh/config.

Or I suppose in 1.22 you could add a .wt.json file to your %userprofile% that's got a snippet for each connection. So you could have something like:

{
    "$version": "1.0.0",
    "snippets":
    [
        {
            "input": "ssh 192.168.0.1",
            "name": "my thing",
            "description": "ssh to my thing"
        },
        {
            "input": "ssh 192.168.0.2",
            "name": "another one",
            "description": "you get the picture"
        },
    ]
}
