Node Details SSH button open external program

gerbanis

There is a SSH button under Node Details in NPM.

I would like the option to change the SSH button to open an external SSH program like SecuryCRT or PuTTY.

In my case, I always use SecureCRT with a special setup, log saving, colouring etc.

I can understand the button's use if you don't have such programs but for me the button is useless in it's current setup. The option would be great!

This assumes your PuTTY application is in the default installation path.  This enables the little SSH button to launch PuTTY as it assigns the SSH:// address to the application.  Hopefully this is what you were looking for.
