How do you remember which box you want, at the moment?  If you want to
connect to the box in the lab out the back, do you look up a name on a
chart or remember all the host names?

Perhaps a helper client on your end would be the trick.  You enter what
you want, it looks up the details, and issues the appropriate connection
request.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
