I've downloaded and installed scsh quite easily, and with no problems. I 
have had some problems with the SUnet web server which is written in 
scsh, and I think that they are using the SUnet web and FTP servers for 
the website, which might explain why your download wasn't working.

Anyhow, just because someone doesn't like Unix or C doesn't mean that 
they have something better. It just means that they would like something 
better, which is what they are working towards with scsh. If you look 
carefully, scsh has a version number of 0.6.1. That implies prerelease 
to me.
