10.4: Use Safari for SSH bookmarking
Authored by: roballen on Jun 01, '05 06:17:23PM

Anyone know if it is possible to change the default terminal client to be something different? For example iterm.

10.4: Use Safari for SSH bookmarking
Authored by: jaysoffian on Jun 01, '05 08:49:58PM

If you install the RCDefaultApp preference pane, you can set the ssh URL to open iTerm.app instead of Terminal.app. The only problem is that iTerm doesn't appear to then handle the URL that's been passed to it (I'm actually not sure how Safari passes the URL along to Terminal.app either...).

So we're halfway there. To make things work with iTerm, you might want to submit an enhancement request to the author. Unfortunately I don't have time to take a look at it any more right now. Sorry. :-(

ssh actually handles the URL so from the command line you can
 ssh user@host 
Which is the same as.
 ssh -l user host
