It was just an idea, to have a client-plugin which catches all my remote
commands
and delivers it to the server-plugin. Console-plugin shows enough feedback
as far I've seen. Also I didn't work out, what this plugin expects to
work.
So yesterday I had the console-plugin only open to show, what I did on the
other
telnet session (svdrhost).
