Language This is the configuration file for sshd found inside ~/.ssh/config on most systems.

Additional resources I found this issue that seems to have done the same thing for linguist which drives GitHub syntax highlighting - wondering if it can be added in Prism which drives syntax highlighting in my favourite MD editor (Obsidian).

EDIT: Additionally, some regex from https://github.com/Alhadis/language-etc/blob/master/grammars/ssh-config.cson may be reusable - can't be sure because I don't know the language, perhaps someone else can take a look.

Notes If this syntax highlighting engine already exists (and I simply didn't find it), this request could be changed to be a request for an official alias to ssh-config to get some consistency for the same code uploaded to different platforms with different syntax highlighting engines.
