ssheven
|
|
-------
|
|
A minimal new SSH client for Mac OS 7/8/9.
|
|
|
|
Project status: as of 0.8.0 ([see github releases](https://github.com/cy384/ssheven/releases)), fairly secure and usable, but without a polished UX or all planned features. Versions prior to 1.0.0 should be considered alpha/beta quality.

|
system requirements
|
|
-------------------
|
|
* CPU: Any PPC processor, or at least a 68030 (68040 strongly recommended).
|
|
* RAM: 2MB.
|
|
* Disk space: fits on a floppy.
|
|
* System 7.1 or later. Versions below 7.5 require the Thread Manager extension.
|
|
* Open Transport networking required, latest version possible highly recommended.
|
|
|
|
features that might happen
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
* improved unicode support
|
|
* basic scp file transfer
|
|
* configurable terminal string
|
|
* configurable/auto-choosing SSH buffer size (improves feel for faster machines)
|
|
* nicer error presentation for more failure cases
|
|
* add `known_hosts` reset option
|
|
* read Apple HIG and clean up UI/UX
|
|
* all license info in an about box type thing
|
|
* finish and upload papercraft box, floppy sticker artwork, icon/logo svg
|
|
* more complete color support
|
|
* keyboard-interactive login
|
|
* better debug output
|
|
* multiple terminal windows open at once
|
|
|
|
known problems
|
|
--------------
|
|
* drawing the screen is somewhat slow
|
|
* input latency feels high because redrawing the screen is slow (along with all the encryption, which is also slow)
|
|
* receiving a large amount of data may break the channel or cause lockups (e.g. `cat /dev/zero`)
|
|
* non-US keyboard input may or may not have issues
|

|
build
|
|
-----
|
|
Uses [Retro68](https://github.com/autc04/Retro68/) (requires the Universal headers) and cmake.
|
|
|
|
Requires mbedtls, libssh2, and libvterm, see my (cy384's) hackjobs of those libraries for details. These are now pulled in as submodules, and everything should get built with a single CMake build.
|
|
|
|
The script `build-ssheven.bash` can be used to build a fat binary, or just as reference for build commands.
