Indeed clustershell seems very similar, didn't know about it. I have
not yet looked at clustershell in detail but seems realy very similar.
gsh has colored output with different colors for each node and has the
possibility to interact with gsh during execution, e.g. when you have
running gsh on some nodes you have interactively the following:

:add               Add one or many remote shells.
:chdir             Change the current directory of gsh (not the remote shells).
:disable           Disable sending commands to remote shells.
:enable            Enable sending commands to remote shells.
:export_vars       Export some environment variables on enabled remote shells.
:help              List control commands or show their documentations.
:hide_password     Do not echo the next typed line.
:list              List remote shells and their states.
:purge             Delete disabled remote shells.
:quit              Quit gsh.
:reconnect         Try to reconnect to disconnected remote shells.
:rename            Rename all enabled remote shells with the argument.
:replicate         Copy a path from one remote shell to all others
:reset_prompt      Change the prompt to be recognized by gsh.
:send_ctrl         Send a control character to remote shells.
:set_debug         Enable or disable debugging output for remote shells.
:set_log           Duplicate every console I/O into the given local file.
:show_read_buffer  Print the data read by remote shells.
:upload            Upload the specified local path to enabled remote shells.
