I'll echo Sharon's comments. Beyond question, the best, most powerful
and easiest to use ssh client for OSX is RBrowser. It has been around
for over a decade (originally written on NeXTStep and where I first
used it.) Version 3.3.5 is the current version. It's regularly updated
but always stable as a rock. Robert Vasvari is very responsive. I've
used every version released _daily_ since mid-1996. I manage half a
dozen web sites with it so it's one of those apps that launches
automatically when I log in. I simply could not do the work that I do
without RBrowser (or CocoaMySQL and SubEthaEdit).
