This is to announce the first beta release of HUSH. Thusfar the basics of the SSH 2 protocol are in place and are quite usable; the console-based program works quite well as a SSH client.

Much more is left to do. The next steps will be to implement X11 and port forwarding, and to finish the GUI terminal.

HUSH, the Hopefully Uncomprehensible Shell, is enjoying its first public alpha release, 0.0.1.

There is a significant amount of functionality in place; inlcuding:

* A pure Java implementation of most of the SSH protocol, version 2.

* A console-based client that may be used on UN*X systems just like any other SSH client.

* A GUI-based client based on the last free release of MindTerm.

* An interpreter for X11's portable compiled format (PCF) bitmap fonts.
