Description

Hello, i really like Windterm in daily use but i miss one feature very useful present in putty/kitty.

The Remote command function present in putty allow to send command at login, it does not work like the current way it's implemented in windterm, where the command is pushed after a 1sec delay by default.

So i wanted to know if it was possible to add a function that work like putty to make it almost transparent:

In my case, i need to login on a linux server with a "admin" account then i can login with the "root" account in localhost so i use the command "ssh root@localhost" but in windterm there's only the "Execute command after authentication" that doesn't behave like putty does.

Thanks for the help.

Research direction

Start with WindTerm’s existing “Execute command after authentication” behavior and compare it with the requested PuTTY-style Remote command flow. Done means a configured command runs at login without the current one-second delay, including the admin-to-root localhost SSH case; verify the behavior with an appropriate login test.
