Fuxino 9a68a8660d Resolve the remote output path on the server
The output path was made absolute with os.path.abspath and '~' was
expanded to the local home, so relative paths and '~' pointed to the
wrong folder on the server. Resolve the path on the server instead,
where '~' and relative paths refer to the remote user's home, and
document it.
