QUICK & DIRTY SSH PROTOCOL HANDLER
This allows Windows to handle the SSH protocol such as ssh://sshserver:2022
Add the following 2 files to the folder where you store putty - e.g. C:\Program Files\Putty\
To register SSH protocol in Windows, run:
ssh -regssh.bat:
@echo off set this=%~dp0 if %~1.==. goto HELP if /i "%~1" equ "-r" goto Register set host=%~1 set protocol=%host:~0,5% if /i "%protocol%" equ "--reg" goto Register set protocol=%host:~0,6% :sshhere if /i "%protocol%" neq "ssh://" goto ERROR set sshHOST=%host:ssh://=% set sshHOST=%sshHOST:/=% Echo %sshHOST% pause :Open Echo Starting... start "SSH Host: %sshHOST%" /D"%this%" putty.exe -ssh %sshHOST% Goto :EOF :ERROR msg * /time:10 "Invalid SSH URL - expected format is ssh://HOSTNAME" Goto :EOF :Register reg import "%this%\SSHhandler.reg" reg add HKCR\ssh\DefaultIcon /ve /d "%this%PUTTY.EXE,1" /f>nul reg add HKCR\ssh\shell\open\command /ve /d "%this%ssh.bat \"%%1"" /f>nul Goto :EOF :HELP Echo Syntax: Echo Script Path: %~dpnx0 Echo.
