opt('hostname', '*', long_text='''
The hostname that the following options apply to. A glob pattern to match
multiple hosts can be used. Multiple hostnames can also be specified, separated
by spaces. The hostname can include an optional username in the form
:code:`user@host`. When not specified options apply to all hosts, until the
first hostname specification is found. Note that matching of hostname is done
against the name you specify on the command line to connect to the remote host.
If you wish to include the same basic configuration for many different hosts,
you can do so with the :ref:`include <include>` directive.
''')
opt('interpreter', 'sh', long_text='''
The interpreter to use on the remote host. Must be either a POSIX complaint
shell or a :program:`python` executable. If the default :program:`sh` is not
available or broken, using an alternate interpreter can be useful.
''')
opt('remote_dir', '.local/share/kitty-ssh-kitten', long_text='''
The location on the remote host where the files needed for this kitten are
installed. Relative paths are resolved with respect to :code:`$HOME`.
''')
opt('+copy', '', add_to_default=False, long_text=f'''
{copy_message} For example::
copy .vimrc .zshrc .config/some-dir
Use :code:`--dest` to copy a file to some other destination on the remote host::
copy --dest some-other-name some-file
Glob patterns can be specified to copy multiple files, with :code:`--glob`::
copy --glob images/*.png
Files can be excluded when copying with :code:`--exclude`::
copy --glob --exclude *.jpg --exclude *.bmp images/*
Files whose remote name matches the exclude pattern will not be copied.
For more details, see :ref:`ssh_copy_command`.

egr() # }}}
agr('shell', 'Login shell environment') # {{{
opt('shell_integration', 'inherited', long_text='''
Control the shell integration on the remote host. See :ref:`shell_integration`
for details on how this setting works. The special value :code:`inherited` means
use the setting from :file:`kitty.conf`. This setting is useful for overriding
integration on a per-host basis.
''')
opt('login_shell', '', long_text='''
The login shell to execute on the remote host. By default, the remote user
account's login shell is used.
''')
opt('+env', '', add_to_default=False, long_text='''
Specify the environment variables to be set on the remote host. Using the
name with an equal sign (e.g. :code:`env VAR=`) will set it to the empty string.
Specifying only the name (e.g. :code:`env VAR`) will remove the variable from
the remote shell environment. The special value :code:`_kitty_copy_env_var_`
will cause the value of the variable to be copied from the local environment.
The definitions are processed alphabetically. Note that environment variables
are expanded recursively, for example::
env VAR1=a
env VAR2=${HOME}/${VAR1}/b
The value of :code:`VAR2` will be :code:`<path to home directory>/a/b`.
''')
opt('cwd', '', long_text='''
The working directory on the remote host to change to. Environment variables in
this value are expanded. The default is empty so no changing is done, which
usually means the HOME directory is used.
''')
opt('color_scheme', '', long_text='''
Specify a color scheme to use when connecting to the remote host. If this option
ends with :code:`.conf`, it is assumed to be the name of a config file to load
from the kitty config directory, otherwise it is assumed to be the name of a
color theme to load via the :doc:`themes kitten </kittens/themes>`. Note that
only colors applying to the text/background are changed, other config settings
in the .conf files/themes are ignored.
''')
opt('remote_kitty', 'if-needed', choices=('if-needed', 'no', 'yes'), long_text='''
Make :program:`kitty` available on the remote host. Useful to run kittens such
as the :doc:`icat kitten </kittens/icat>` to display images or the
:doc:`transfer file kitten </kittens/transfer>` to transfer files. Only works if
the remote host has an architecture for which :link:`pre-compiled kitty binaries
<https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/releases>` are available. Note that kitty
is not actually copied to the remote host, instead a small bootstrap script is
copied which will download and run kitty when kitty is first executed on the
remote host. A value of :code:`if-needed` means kitty is installed only if not
already present in the system-wide PATH. A value of :code:`yes` means that kitty
is installed even if already present, and the installed kitty takes precedence.
Finally, :code:`no` means no kitty is installed on the remote host. The
installed kitty can be updated by running: :code:`kitty +update-kitty` on the
remote host.

egr() # }}}
agr('ssh', 'SSH configuration') # {{{
opt('share_connections', 'yes', option_type='to_bool', long_text='''
Within a single kitty instance, all connections to a particular server can be
shared. This reduces startup latency for subsequent connections and means that
you have to enter the password only once. Under the hood, it uses SSH
ControlMasters and these are automatically cleaned up by kitty when it quits.
You can map a shortcut to :ac:`close_shared_ssh_connections` to disconnect all
active shared connections.
''')
opt('askpass', 'unless-set', choices=('unless-set', 'ssh', 'native'), long_text='''
Control the program SSH uses to ask for passwords or confirmation of host keys
etc. The default is to use kitty's native :program:`askpass`, unless the
:envvar:`SSH_ASKPASS` environment variable is set. Set this option to
:code:`ssh` to not interfere with the normal ssh askpass mechanism at all, which
typically means that ssh will prompt at the terminal. Set it to :code:`native`
to always use kitty's native, built-in askpass implementation. Note that not
using the kitty askpass implementation means that SSH might need to use the
terminal before the connection is established, so the kitten cannot use the
terminal to send data without an extra roundtrip, adding to initial connection
latency.
