SSH escape sequences or how to quit frozen SSH connection

Hey,

So your SSH session has been frozen? Here is what I was doing when it happened.

The actual thing that should be done is press:

• Enter
• ~ (tilda)
• . (dot)

Welcome back to your local machine.

The actions performed are called Escape Sequence.

SSH is just a shell tunnel between you and another machine. The SSH client pass all keys sequence, including key bindings, to the server.
