Python - Qt. How to make a Terminal Window for Telnet or ssh server interaction.

Question

Hi, i am making a PyQt application, and i want to make something like a Terminal Window, where the user can interact with a Telnet or ssh server.

My first idea was to have a Window with a black QPlainTextEdit and a scrollbar.

I am new to python-Qt world and would appreciate some guidance. Any ideas?

Thanks :-)

Here's a link to a terminal program written in C++ using Qt. I'm not sure how helpful it will be for the low level stuff but I'm sure the Qt parts will be helpful. http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtermwidget/
