SSH session in perl.

Is it possible to ssh to a server in perl and execute multiple commands without doing them all at once?

I know I can potentially do something like

Code:
system( 'ssh user@server "cd directory; grep blah *; curl someurl.com"');

However, I'd like the functionality where I don't have to keep SSHing over and over to the same machine. Further, I'm not sure how to catch output from each command that's executed. If anyone could point me in the right direction or share some sample code with me, I'd appreciate it.


Thanks in advance for all responses.

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
