You must be using windows 7 64 that is when Jaws shits the bed. I will say after I complained they fixed ssh some the only problem it has repeating now is when you delete characters on a line. If you want to get rid of all that and go to a real good shell there are only two ways. 1) Vinux and switch to speakup window using control-alt -f2 This will give you a shell that is awesome because its speakup if you were an asap user it's just as good. 2) Mac using the mac is weird but very accessible at the shell. There are no other solutions that track the curser as well even the putty users will tell you to do things like clear the screen or stand on your head drinking a beer while doing an ls and don't forget to pray to Thor the god of war and Os's.

Of course that's just my opinion. I use ssh in cygwin if you install all packages it comes with it. Then if I want to use ssh in windows I just make a path to the cygwin/bin and I am all set. This also give s you full access to the Linux tools from command line. Of course now with Vinux out I am using vm player and Vinux and speakup so that I can even block and copy in the shell much easier than using screen. Of course I am a real command line nerd I am as comfortable in linux command line as I was with MsDos in the mid 90's I skipped over win 3.1, all the way to 98 which was my first windows environment. Again ssh cygwin is much better than putty.

I feel like I'm going crazy. I looked for openssh and found a page for it, which led me to winscp, which sounded like what I wanted, but I can't get it into a state I can work with. What I'd really like is not something like telnet or sftp, but rather a bash shell that I can run remotely. I haven't done this in a while and need someone to jog my memory as to what tools are best for doing this. I understand that MSYS and MinGW have an ssh command that works, but I have MSYS set up and it can't find ssh. I also have cygwin set up, bu it also has no ssh. I considered putty, but thought I'd ask the list first. How many trees do I have to bark at before I find the right command? Someone please post a note.
