Really looking forward to tinkering with this.

SSHeven: a modern SSH client for Mac OS 7/8/9
- Thread starter cy384
- Start date
Been busy with work, but, just released a minor update, 0.8.9 is out now. A few bugs were fixed and you can now connect/disconnect/reconnect without quitting. I guess my original plan of finishing ssheven by end of summer 2020 was optimistic, huh? The next feature and release will be for scp file transfer, I'm not even going to try to put a date on it.
I just tried this out on my resurrected Quadra 700 last night. Works great!
Thank you for this!! This is an awesome way to manage a Raspberry Pi.
Now I really want to get an RPi0w on a https://github.com/PiSCSI installed internally for wireless networking knowing that I can remote access the RPi OS from within MacOS.
Works with SSH keys‽ That's it, I'm bringing my PowerBook 540C into work next week and doing sysadmin work from it.
Now get me an SSH-tunneling-working copy of MacX. 
I'm always happy to see people using ssheven! It's been a very busy year for me but I swear I think about working on ssheven all the time 
The big things on the agenda are (still) improved handling of network errors, file transfer, various bug fixes, and some code cleanup. There are plenty of other improvements I'd like to address eventually. (Actually I have another even more amazing semi-related project that I'd like to do next, but I definitely want to "finish" ssheven first).

A small update on SSHeven: version 0.9.0 is now available. It has:
As always, thanks to everyone who has reported bugs and tested fixes!
- Very basic unicode support (turns all non-ASCII characters into a ◊). This means a rogue unicode character won't mess up all your text alignment anymore.
- Improved alt/option key handling
- Fix for crashes on PPC 601 machines
- Updated SSH and TLS libraries (speed and security improvements)
- Better behavior on server disconnects

This is very impressive. I was only referencing SSH support for early Macs about a week ago. Do you support Elliptic Curve Cryptography too? It'd be even better if there was a primitive BBS style front end for 68KMLA, so that we'd be able to actually read and write posts using an ancient Mac!
I believe, with the latest libssh2 version I'm using now, there is some support. I haven't confirmed in SSHeven, but the project claims:
Excellent!
