There is a jaws scripting email list. The people there are very helpful. 
I don't have the address right now but I found it by googling.

I have a script that works with openssh for Windows. Cygwin and openssh 
used to share a lot of the smae code. But development of openssh stopped 
years ago. I haven't kept up because I don't use Windows any more since 
my job is entirely working with linux. But here is a link to my jaws 
script for openssh. It will probably mostly work with cygwin.
