The synopsis shows the most important things. To start learning how to use `new`, `capture2` and `error` is enough and quite straight forward. There is a samples directory on the distribution, though, they are for advanced topics.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Ok Thanks very much Salva I have it working, however I now have a new problem it seems! I have it working for normal commands such as ls, cd etc. But how do i read stdin to execute a local script as described above? The following doesn't work: `$ssh->system("tcsh < script1.tcsh") or die "Remote command failed: ".Ł +ssh->error;` [download] It appears to be looking for "script1.tcsh" on the remote machine which is not what i want. Also, how would i get more that one script to run in parallel? Thanks for your help, it's very much appreciated!	[reply] [d/l]

`$ssh->system({ stdin_file => 'script1.tcsh' }, 'tcsh') or die "Remote command failed: " . $ssh->error;` [download] Running things in parallel is not so easy. You have the `spawn` method that returns a PID, then you use perl built-ins as `waitpid` on the PID to wait for the remote process to finish.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Unsurprisingly there are sample scripts in the sample directory.	[reply]
