The terminal emulator is a very significant piece of code and it is
the only thing that solves your problem. Use mobileterminal or
another terminal emulator that fits your environment.

Re-purposing the terminal emulator in mobileterminal is *surely*
*much* less time consuming than implementing your own terminal
emulator.

So what? You have the source code, write some glue that connects the
two together. Forget about the files. The terminal emulator part of
mobileterminal is the kind of code that you need to solve your
problem.

Of course the output does not come from libssh2 - SSH is a clean
transport that never influences the data being sent.
It is difficult for you to decode output from commands which expect
to be connected to a terminal, because you are not a terminal, and
because you are not using a terminal emulator.
Use a terminal emulator, whose purpose is to understand the output
from commands that expect to be connected to a terminal.

Just trying to reuse the decoding functionality for the app, so, i
can make the o/p to be displayed on the screen (UIView).
UIView is most likely completely useless as a terminal widget. My
guess is that you would get the best result from using mobileterminal
or another complete terminal emulator which is already implemented on
your platform.

No I can not! Why should I? I have no iPhone and I don't develop
iPhone apps. This is the libssh2 mailing list, not a mailing list
about terminal emulators for the iPhone.
I did one search on google.com looking for a terminal emulator for
iphone and I found the mobileterminal project *immediately*. It looks
to me like mobileterminal solves the bulk of your problem. What
remains is for you to produce some glue code between the terminal
emulator and libssh2.
Obviously you did not bother to do the same search.. I'm sure you can
understand that this makes me very unmotivated to help you any
further.

Too bad. You need a terminal emulator, mobileterminal looked like a
good fit, but if you are unable to use it then you should of course
search for an alternative. This mailing list is not a good place to
search, since this mailing list is about the libssh2 project, which
really is quite independent from terminal emulators.
Good luck.
