When using SSH terminal clients, such as putty, Cygwin, etc., NVDA, up to the latest stable release 2014-03, is unreliable with responding with the correct line of data at the cursor position in applications on the console, such as pico and other text editors. In addition, it will not follow highlighting unless a cursor is present, and even then, it won't always report the correct line being moved to.
Several people have confirmed what I have personally encountered in the following thread:

I am willing to provide you more specific examples and am available for testing. I am switching from JAWS to NVDA and desperately need this to work for the ticketing system my work uses. I would be happy to test any advances in this area.
