Auto-name console of connected remote kernel with connection JSON-file #11774

Open lecjul opened 4 years ago

lecjul commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I use spyder connecting to remote kernels on different PCs a lot. When I open more than one remote kernel, I have to rename the console name manually for each one to avoid confusion. Would it be possible to add a feature to use the "kernel_name"-field (or any other) in the JSON-connection file to automatically name the console?

Best regards,

Thanks for the suggestion. This work is part of improving the overall experience when connecting to remote kernels to be worked on a future release.
