SSH Config Editor Pro 2.6.12 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesAnyone who manages servers ends up with a long SSH config file, and editing it as plain text invites small mistakes. SSH Config Editor replaces the guesswork with a visual interface. Hosts, users, ports and identity files become clear fields, and you can open a connection in Terminal straight from the list.
Key Features
- Visual editing of hosts and options in the standard SSH config file
- Port forwarding entries with a graphical preview of the tunnel layout
- Known hosts file management for reviewing and removing saved keys
- Identity file handling with key generation tools inside the app
- Groups and quick actions to open a session in Terminal in one click

System Requirements
The current release runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. The developer keeps older builds for Macs on High Sierra or Mojave, as noted on the product page.
FAQs
Does it change the format of my config file?
No. It edits the same plain text config file that OpenSSH reads, in your SSH folder. You can still edit that file by hand at any time.
What does the Pro version add?
The Pro upgrade unlocks advanced tools such as the full port forwarding editor and key management. Basic host editing works in the standard version.
Can it connect to servers by itself?
It hands connections to Terminal, where the standard SSH client does the work. The app focuses on organizing and editing your configuration rather than replacing the client itself.
