+      # The channel abstraction. Multiple "channels" can be multiplexed onto a
+      # single SSH channel, each operating independently and seemingly in parallel.
+      # This class represents a single such channel. Most operations performed
+      # with the Net::SSH library will involve using one or more channels.
+      #
+      # Channels are intended to be used asynchronously. You request that one be
+      # opened (via Connection::Session#open_channel), and when it is opened, your
+      # callback is invoked. Then, you set various other callbacks on the newly
+      # opened channel, which are called in response to the corresponding events.
+      # Programming with Net::SSH works best if you think of your programs as
+      # state machines. Complex programs are best implemented as objects that
+      # wrap a channel. See Net::SCP and Net::SFTP for examples of how complex
+      # state machines can be built on top of the SSH protocol.
+      #

+      #     channel.exec("/invoke/some/command") do |ch, success|
+      #       abort "could not execute command" unless success
+      #
+      #       channel.on_data do |ch, data|
+      #         puts "got stdout: #{data}"
+      #         channel.send_data "something for stdin\n"

+      # Channels also have a basic hash-like interface, that allows programs to
+      # store arbitrary state information on a channel object. This helps simplify
+      # the writing of state machines, especially when you may be juggling
+      # multiple open channels at the same time.
+      #
+      # Note that data sent across SSH channels are governed by maximum packet
+      # sizes and maximum window sizes. These details are managed internally
+      # by Net::SSH::Connection::Channel, so you may remain blissfully ignorant
+      # if you so desire, but you can always inspect the current maximums, as
+      # well as the remaining window size, using the reader attributes for those
+      # values.

+        # according to the kind of request you are watching.
+        #
+        # By default, if the request wants a reply, Net::SSH will send a
+        # CHANNEL_SUCCESS response for any request that was handled by a registered
+        # callback, and CHANNEL_FAILURE for any that wasn't, but if you want your
+        # registered callback to result in a CHANNEL_FAILURE response, just raise
+        # Net::SSH::ChannelRequestFailed.
+        #
+        # Some common channel requests that your programs might want to listen
+        # for are:
+        #
+        # * "exit-status" : the exit status of the remote process will be reported
+        #   as a long integer in the data buffer, which you can grab via
+        #   data.read_long.
+        # * "exit-signal" : if the remote process died as a result of a signal
+        #   being sent to it, the signal will be reported as a string in the
+        #   data, via data.read_string. (Not all SSH servers support this channel
+        #   request type.)
+        #
+        #     channel.on_request "exit-status" do |ch, data|

+        # callback to be invoked with the channel as the first argument, and
+        # either true or false as the second, depending on whether the request
+        # succeeded or not. The meaning of "success" and "failure" in this context
