I'm pleased to announce that rssh now has per-user configurations!
Today I released rssh v2.1.0 with that last peice of functionality to
be added, bringing active development of rssh to a close.
Additionally, I spent several hours testing and debugging this release
as thoroughly as I could think to, and I'm pleased to report (tongue
in cheek) that there are no bugs in v2.1.0 either!

Seriously, I removed several long-standing buglets in the parser
dealing with skipping whitespace, quoting, and similar.  Also, fail()
now correctly reports what options are allowed to the user running it.
And maybe one or two other little things were fixed, plus
documentation updates.

As you probably know, rssh is a small shell which can be used to
restrict users' access to a system running sshd via either scp, sftp,
or both.  Or, new in 2.1, neither.  It's overkill for the job, but you
can now configure rssh to lock out users entirely.  And, also as of
2.1.0, you can configure all that on a per-user basis.  rssh is
designed to work with OpenSSH on Linux platforms, but also works on
other POSIX.2-compliant OSes (it requires wordexp(), which is defined
by POSIX.2), and probably also works with other sshd's.
