A short status update: I've implemented the exec request, which means
that it is possible to say

  lsh some.host some command

to have the remote machine execute '/your/shell -c "some command".
I haven't packed it up in a release yet (I'd like to get bazsi's
latest work in before that), but you can get it from the cvs gateway
at http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/lsh. wget is your friend.

There are also two new lsh options, -S (shell) and -E (exec). It's
possible to use several of them for a single lsh command. For natural
reasons, only one of them can be connected to stdin, so all but the
first get their input from /dev/null. These features are mostly
untested.

It should be straight-forward to add --stdin, --stdout and --stderr
modifiers, but I haven't gotten around to that yet. Combined that with a
shell that understands <(command), and I think you can do some
interesting things.

Happy hacking,
