Summary: add ssh compression to getimage (-C flag)

Initial Comment:
It would be desirable to add the -C flag to the ssh

command issued in getimage.



The line in question looks to be line 383:

$command="ssh -f -l $ssh_user -L $port:$source_host:873

$source_host sleep 5";



changing this to:



 $command="ssh -C -f -l $ssh_user -L

$port:$source_host:873 $source_host sleep 5";



should do the trick. On machines with lots of ascii

type files this should speed things up quite a lot. I

note that the ssh documentation states that -C may slow

things down on fast networks, maybe another option

could be added to the getimage command line parameters

that allows the user to specify whether they are on a

fast or slow connection?
