You can install a GUI program to telnet/ssh /out/ of the iPhone/iPad and access the command-line on a computer. I’ve seen sysadmins use iPads that way. You can’t write a program to shell into the iDevice. It doesn’t run the appropriate daemons. There is no command-line shell in iOS. You might find 'sh' installed, but there’s no way, short of jailbreaking the phone, to run it. And if you did run it via a GUI app, it would be sandboxed, with no way to access files outside of its own storage area. Because sandboxing and strong security are what ensures nothing can interfere with the phone functions of the iPhone, which is a legal requirement. Of course, you could jailbreak your iPhone. But frankly it’s simpler to leave your iPhone all nice and secure and buy a cheap Android phone for hacking on.
