With ssh,  you can use special "host names" for special connections.

For instance, if you had ssh running on port 443 on host
darcs.example, you could have something like

Host de
   hostname darcs.example
   port 443

in ~/.ssh/config and you could then use

darcs {push,pull,get} de:/path/to/repo

The Host section can be used to set up tunneling, change username, etc.

On windows you can define putty "session" called "de" and use exactly
the same darcs commands as on Unix. The sessions have almost as
versatile options as ~/.ssh/config.
