A new version of the awesome SSH client SSHeven has been released by cy384. The list of improvements include very basic unicode support, fix for crahes on PowerPC 601 machines, improved alt/option key handling as well as updated SSH and TLS libraries. SSHeven is avaliable as a FAT binary for 68k and PowerPC Macs running System 7.1 up until Mac OS 9.2.2.

Great! I use it daily. It's an awesome addition to the "daily driver" arsenal of tools :)

This is pretty cool. Not sure what use I'd personally have for it, though. I'm not too familiar with SSH, but I assume this won't support e.g. drag'n'drop between two systems connected via SSH, right?

Between SSH and VNC, which you guys find better, and why?

All I have only ever used is SSH and the only thing I did with it was log into my NextCloud server to run updates and make configuration changes.

They are totally different beasts. SSH (as in Secure SHell) is text/console/shell only while VNC (as in Virtual Network Computing) is a desktop sharing protocol that uses the "remote framebuffer protocol". It's meant to be graphical by design.

I run my servers headless and administrate them purely over SSH and don't have any desktop environment or X-server installed, so SSHeven does what I need :). You can't drag and drop anything between systems, it opens a text terminal to the remote system so you can access it that way.

So I don't find any of them better than the other, they are two different tools meant for two different jobs and they both do their respective work very well.

Well, cool tools like this for older systems are always welcome, whether we have any idea on how to use them or not, right? ;) I also added an IA link of its GitHub assets page for reference and safekeeping! :D
