like discussed on the mailinglist, a simple feautre which would do the following would expand the import key feautre to the ones described in seahorse help if is sskey: cp id_rsa ~/.ssh/ cp id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/ chmod ga-rwx ~/.ssh/id_rsa chmod u+rw ~/.ssh/id_rsa possible problems could be: - what if the user has got 2 ssh keys - ssh keys consists on private and public files - only the private one is exported You can#t create a public SSH key from the private one.
