16.1.8

[carloscabanero]

Build 757

• Synced hosts also keep the reference to the synchronized key, so it makes it easier to generate keys named the same way on multiple devices. The interface now signals when a key is missing. No error message for lost private key? #1712

Going Back to the Basics, the next releases will be focused on Shell functionality. Let's get started:

• Agent keys to Forward: You can now configure what keys you want to forward automatically when connected to a specific Host. There is no standard way to provide this through .ssh/config yet, so we added it as part of our Host Configuration. The Agent should have a way to add keys automatically #1779 & “agent refused operation” using Blink 14 agent forwarding #1293
• Agent Forward Prompt per Host: Forwarding keys automatically can be dangerous. Blink can now ask for user confirmation before sending a key to a remote. And because our agent works at the Host level, you will always know "what" key is being requested, and "who" is requesting it. The Agent should have a way to add keys automatically #1779 & “agent refused operation” using Blink 14 agent forwarding #1293
• ssh-add with Confirmation: If you add a key through the manual ssh-add, you still have access to the confirmation prompt by adding the new -c flag.

Bug fixes and other improvements:

• With OSC52 sequences, Mosh would reset the clipboard state If had a previous OSC-52 (paste) in MOSH and there’s a disconnect, blink does a spurious paste #1205.
• We have updated Fonts, but still looking for a better / less manual way to upload and keep them updated.
• We now set Option as Esc by default on first start.
