SSH Protocol Handling

To open URLs like: ssh://user@hostname.com
Check to see if ssh protocol handler is already set:

xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/ssh

Create desktop entry (.desktop file) for ssh handler:

cat << EOF > ~/.local/share/applications/ssh-handler.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=SSH Handler
GenericName=SSH Handler
Comment=Open ssh URLs - ssh://user@hostname
Version=1.0
Exec=bash -c '(URL="%U" HOST="\${URL:6}"; ssh \$HOST); bash'
Terminal=true
Type=Application
Icon=utilities-terminal
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/ssh;
Keywords=ssh;protocol
EOF

Set default ssh handler:

 xdg-mime default ssh-handler.desktop x-scheme-handler/ssh

Now open URL from browser. Done!
