As for windows - I came up with the putty-idea as well - but since you
can't select() file-descriptors in windows, I didn't do any work on it.
It should present a pretty awful solution to provide the password on
putty-prompt and provide an input-file for commands to be executed. This
way it would be possible to later parse the complete output.

If you come up with something better I' d love to hear about it.

Greets,

Julian.
