Not mentioned in the readme and on -h. And quite confused for its use. Because I have several server clusters.
How do I add an alias to a group?
Or, what is the correct sshch.conf syntax for group members?
What is the difference between the host that has or not in the group in the sshch window?
Will the member group also be in bash autocompletion?

Thank you for developing such this great tool 👍

How do I add an alias to a group?

In curses interface:

Press g
Enter groupname f.e. gr1 and press Enter
Enter aliases of this group f.e. al1 al2 (Space is separator) and press Enter
If aliases exist, they will appear in groups. If not, you can create those later.

In cmd interface, similarly:

sshch -g gr2
Enter aliases of this group f.e. al2 al3 al4 (Space is separator) and press Enter

It will be the result:

Or, what is the correct sshch.conf syntax for group members?

Correct sshsh.conf of this example:

[gr1]
group = al1 al2

[al1]
exec_string = ssh test

[al2]
exec_string = ssh test

[gr2]
group = al2 al3 al4

[al3]
exec_string = ssh test

[al4]
exec_string = ssh test

You can change the displayed order by editing this file.

Will the member group also be in bash autocompletion?

Yes.
In case of calling a command to be executed on a group of aliases, the command will be executed one by one on hosts, in the displayed order.
