22 longDescription = ''
23 The SSH agent is usually spawned by running eval $(ssh-agent), however this
24 spawns a new SSH agent at every invocation. This project provides an
25 ssh-agent wrapper called ssh-agents that is capable of spawning an SSH
26 agent and caching the environment variables for later invocation.

28 Features
29 - One SSH agent across all terminals
30 - Add all un-encrypted SSH keys to the agent upon spawning. Please note
31 that encrypted SSH keys can only be added via ssh-add after having
32 started the agent.
33 - Ability to have different keys in different agents for security purposes.
34 - Multiple SSH agents
35 - To use multi-SSH agents, start ssh agent with the --name flag. The
36 given name is expected to be a folder under ~/.ssh/name containing the
37 keys to include in the agent.
