I think you want:
eval spawn $argv
as the middle line. This should work most of the time -- you'll have
to be careful of quoting since this will "eat" a layer of quotes.
I think an even more general-purpose method would be to use the -t
flag of ssh (if you're calling it directly) or something like
paramiko.Channel.get_pty().
