Control ssh connection

$ [enter]~?

SSH can be controlled trough an ~ escape sequence. Example, to terminate the current ssh connection, type a newline, then the ~ character, and last a . character.

This is useful eg when an ssh connection hangs after you reboot a machine and the connection hangs.
