Good idea.......

One un-flexible way is using pipes or pseudo-terminals to send the command to, and to capture the output of the ssh commands to GUI. I only heard about this method, but never did something like that.

A better way might be using some library or routines(which is also something that I am looking for) to manipulate the ssh commands.

Any better idea? Hope someone could answer this post.

Finally, I found a reliable C library: http://www.libssh2.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
