Well, now I have to say that I fail to understand. I mean really, what
does a gui add to ssh? And along those lines, I will say (quite
emphatically) that I much prefer the console telnet in WinNT over the gui
applet in win9x. The console is better hands down every time. The only
possible benefit I can see to the gui is that you don't have to type in
the connection info every time.

Given that you are essentially working at a console in the app, I just
don't understand why a console app to do this is any big deal. I can
understand the value of gui with ftp though.
