Configure ssh preferences
Every Tuesday I work from Google's 6PS office instead of BEL. I work from my laptop, which often requires that I ssh into the desktop work station in BEL. I have settled on a locally optimal workflow that I'd like to improve. To help seek higher ground, I'm planning on using ssh.el to configure tramp and define utility functions to lower my cost of exploring new workflows. - Defines a function, `ssh/desktop-cd-home` that helps me quickly open a dired buffer for my work station's home directory. - Documents some variables that I set weeks ago. - Requires ssh.el in init.el.
