Homebrew developer zx-81 just rolled out a new build of pet application PSPSSH over at QJ.NET PSP Development Forum bringing it up to version 1.0.9. For the uninitiated, before we proceed, PSPSSH is a SSH2 client for the PlayStation Portable based from Matt Johnston's server and client Dropbear v0.48.1.

With this program, users are given remote access to their SSH-enabled PC units. This allows them to enter commands and run scripts from the handheld as if they're exactly right in front of their personal computers. We listed down the changelog for this version provided by zx-81:

* Add iso8859-1 characters support in vt100 emulation
* Add word.txt file to paste words in vt100 console (words in this file can be written using UTF8/unicode)
* All text fonts are now compatible with iso8859-1 characters
* Add all iso8859-1 characters in danzeff virtual keyboard
* Bug fix in IR keyboard .ini files with UTF8 specification (for example mapping string such as "u+c3a0" didn't work properly)
* New Targus mapping with French characters mapped from ALT 1 up to ALT - (see targus-include.ini file for more details)

Please refer to the Readme.txt file included in the download before installing and running the client on your PSP units to avoid any problems. The download package below includes builds compatible with FW 1.5, CFW 3.xx OE as well as the source code.
