    Hi,

    I currently need to access a remote machine over ssh. My internet
    connection is wireless (GPRS) and hence the latency is high (although
    the speed is quite ok). Is there any switch or option which I can use
    with ssh to enable the command line to be buffered until I hit return
    - its very tiresome to have a 1 second or so lag between the time I
    hit a key and when it shows up on the screen.
    If such an option doesn't exist for ssh (I'm using linux with openssh)
    then has anyone got any suggestions about how I could make my like
    more bearable with ssh?

    Thanks,

    - M
