#' @title ClusterFunctions for Remote SSH Execution
#'
#' @description
#' Jobs are spawned by starting multiple R sessions via \code{Rscript} over SSH.
#' If the hostname of the \code{\link{Worker}} equals \dQuote{localhost},
#' \code{Rscript} is called directly so that you do not need to have an SSH client installed.
#'
#' @param workers [\code{list} of \code{\link{Worker}}]\cr
#'   List of Workers as constructed with \code{\link{Worker}}.
#' @inheritParams makeClusterFunctions
#'
#' @note
#' If you use a custom \dQuote{.ssh/config} file, make sure your
#' ProxyCommand passes \sQuote{-q} to ssh, otherwise each output will
#' end with the message \dQuote{Killed by signal 1} and this will break
#' the communication with the nodes.
