libssh: the SSH library ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1* Why ? -_-_-_-_-_ Why not ? :) I've began to work on my own implementation of the ssh protocol because i didn't like the currently public ones. Not any allowed you to import and use the functions as a powerful library, and so i worked on a library-based SSH implementation which was non-existing in the free and open source software world. 2* How/Who ? -_-_-_-_-_-_-_ If you downloaded this file, you must know what it is : a library for accessing ssh client services through C libraries calls in a simple manner. Everybody can use this software under the terms of the LGPL - see the COPYING file If you ask yourself how to compile libssh, please read INSTALL before anything. 3* Where ? -_-_-_-_-_-_ http://www.libssh.org 4* API Changes ! -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Changes between 0.3 and 0.4 --------------------------- We changed libssh to be typesafe now: SSH_SESSION *session -> ssh_session session SFTP_SESSION *sftp -> sftp_session sftp CHANNEL *channel -> ssh_channel channel STRING *string -> ssh_string string ... The options structure has been removed and there is a new function. This function can set all available options now. You can find the enum in the header file and it is documented. Example: ssh_options_set(session, SSH_OPTIONS_HOST, "localhost");
