Open a new Terminal window in “ssh directory” (Mac OS Yosemite)

Question

One can open a new Terminal window in a specific directory by doing

open -a Terminal /path/to/folder

How can I open a new Terminal window in a "ssh directory"? I tried something like

open -a Terminal ssh username@ipp.ip.ip.ip/path/to/folder

but of course it throws an error.

Answer 1

Create a script file eg runssh.sh containing your command, that is

ssh username@ipp.ip.ip.ip/path/to/folder

Then run

open -a Terminal runssh.sh

Answer 2

You can open a new Terminal window and execute an arbitrary command this way:

osascript -e 'tell app "Terminal" to do script "echo This is a command"'

That said, I find no evidence that ssh username@ipp.ip.ip.ip/path/to/folder is a sensible command. Why do you expect that to work? Does it work if you just type it directly into an existing Terminal window? It doesn't for me. (Of course, I'm using a real host address and path.) It works if I leave off the path.
