Add SSH Key support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

$ ./csshX -v
csshX  0.7

I extended the user@host:port group with a ;pemkey part so that you can easily 
connect to hosts that need PEM keys (eg Amazon EC2 services).

--hosts file format is now
user@host:port;/path/to/pem any command here

the path to the pem key has to be absolute

Hello,

I'm using version 0.74 of csshx. When connecting to an Amazon instance from a 
terminal I use the following command:

ssh -1 <key pair> ec2-user@<ip address>

Can you elaborate by showing the command you used and give and example of how 
to configure the host file. I've tried several variations with no success.

Thank you

Out of the box this will not work. you have to apply the patch I included.

The hosts file is then as described in my comment:
user@host:port;/path/to/pem
