Having read the five replies to your original posts, the following 
thoughts come to mind.



> -built-in sz/rz support

	It would seem to me that the destination host sshd would have to 
	support this (I'm probably wrong though).

> -saving of passwords
	
	Generally takes the form of plain text files.  Certainly bad form
	at the very least.  I really urge you to take a look at keys, 
	ssh-agent and keyforwarding.  This makes ssh life quite pleasant.


> -execute certain commands/scripts upon login
	
	.bashrc or .bash_profile are not sufficient for your needs? (or 
	their equivalents for other shells)


Well barring all that, take a look at kermit
	
	www.columbia.edu/kermit


I believe it addresses all the concerns you laid out above.
