I have no real idea how to achieve this, sorry. If you come with a
working solution you're welcome!
/user|remoteuser@remotehost:/
You mean enclosed in slashes?
No, I was referring to the | between the user and the remoteuser.
Would that be possible to split in the proxies list somehow?
Also ambigous, because Tramp knows it
comes to real file names when it reaches a slash during parsing. And
your proposal misses the method; it must not be ssh in call cases.
Yeah, I guess I meant:
/sudo:user|remoteuser@remotehost:/
Maybe it's not only ido but a general change: Let's assume we have an
ad-hoc marker, call it "/multi:" or "/ad-hoc:". When typing this in the
minibuffer, the file name completion knows that the next substring must
be a proxy (like "ssh:transit@proxy:"). Once parsed, it takes it out of
completion, together with the ad-hoc marker, and adds it silently to
`tramp-default-proxies-alist'. You continue with the filename you intend
to open, like "/ssh:user@host:". Or you add the next ad-hoc marker :-)
Next time you need to type only "/ssh:user@host:", because the proxy is
already added to `tramp-default-proxies-alist'.
Can you show me how you'd go about coding this? I'm afraid I have no idea...
The advantage is, that Tramp does not need to parse the whole string
"/multi:ssh:transit@proxy:ssh:user@host:", which makes it (me!) crazy.
I'm still confused, this all used to work before it was removed.
What changed to stop it working and require its removal?
And for you it is also more simple, because you have to type the proxy
only once during an Emacs session.
Ido and friends shall be able to handle it without a change. Hopefully.
I'm afraid I don't really follow what you're suggesting...
