[ale] SSH hang on exitRe: [ale] SSH hang on exit

[cfowler]

I noticed a problem with scp.

i.e. You want to copy file.txt to home on 192.168.1.1

scp file.txt user at 192.168.1.1 

This command does not work.  It actually creates a file in the cwd
of the client machine named user at 192.168.1.1

To fix:

scp file.txt user at 192.168.1.1:

This will copy file.txt to ~user on 192.168.1.1
