	There are two methods for using SSH in Eclipse: the SSH Terminal and the SSH Shell. From the perspective of the target board, there is little difference between the two. However, from the perspective of the development machine, the Eclipse Shell has the additional capability of storing command and output history and specifying environmental variables locally to be passed to the remote machine with each connection. The SSH Terminal provided by the RSE plugin provides a complete terminal implementation suitable for interactive applications such as editing files. In contrast, the SSH Shell is better suited to entering simple commands and viewing the output.		There are two methods for using SSH in Eclipse: the SSH Terminal and the SSH Shell.
