This is just scp with more steps

My goal is to get xclip working across ssh sessions, but from a windows host. I constantly have to scp files back and forth and it's a pain.

What about xpipe?

It has a nice gui and ssh filemanager. Runs on all OSes afaik

I'll have to look into that. My issue with sftp/scp/etc is that I'm sshing into many vms, without servers setup on them. I just need a file occasionally but rapidly.

xpipe might really be perfect for you then.

I use it to manage all my machines, vms, docker containers etc. which I would usually ssh into.

It keeps a list of them for you and you can open a commandline or a filemanager with a single click.

Why not use X forwarding?
