Another SSH client on Windows

[Ivan Shcherbakov]

Hi,

Normally, bash and mc report the current directory by changing the tab text
to <user at host>: <directory> via OSC control sequences. SmarTTY uses it to
detect the current directory.
Although it is not a perfect way to detect the current directory, it is
better than blindly issuing a "pwd\n" sequence assuming that a shell is
currently active.

What does this mean? I am not aware of any means by which the client can
determine the Current Working Directory of the session on the server,
particularly if it changes.
