Hi,
I too have moved to the built-in SSH client for most things now. Overall it works pretty well. I just get tired of changing cursors back and forth to review output of large data sets. It would be nice if tabbed data could be reviewed like a table, but I don’t think there is an easy way to make that work. Working with Nano or VI does present a unique challenge never the less. If you have the coordinates of each character within the terminal grid, you could write code for your screen reader of choice that attempts to identify table columns. It wouldn't always work reliably, I expect, but it may work well enough to be practically useful. If I recall correctly, Emacspeak can do this within Emacs shell buffers.
