Sometimes, people want you to write scripts and have trouble installing it on their webserver for they don't have, nor know how to use SSH access.

A shell (over a SSH connection) is usually really handy for debugging, especially if you're not sure if the required Perl modules are all installed; if you're not sure where the script dies...

Yesterday, I had one of those instances where SSH access would be really nice, but -for security reasons- I would have to fax the company a copy of my passport and fill out some forms to get SSH access. Instead of that, I went to look for a different solution and found it in Gamma Web Shell.

The software contains a single Perl script that worked quite well and straight out of the box. It simulates a real shell, which works for most basic UNIX commands. Enough for me, for this particular problem.

Check it out, if you ever need a Web Shell.
