`win-versioninfo': all builds of all Windows binaries now contain a VERSIONINFO resource. The versioning scheme is described in windows/version.rc2. Some .rc files are now #included in others. In order to keep MSVC project files working, these have been renamed to .rc2; there may exist a better solution. (This checkin also includes the documentation tweak missing from r6367.) Testing performed: - MinGW (cross-compiler): works - VC nmake: works (tested with VC6) - VC project files: builds with VERSIONINFO resource (no VER variable though) - Borland: an old version of this patch was tested with it and more or less worked, except that some of the VERSIONINFO strings were apparently not terminated properly. Not attempted to work around this. - LCC: not tested. Some fixes are in there from the last time we tried this, but then the build ultimately failed and I haven't tried this since that was fixed. - Dev-C++: untested. (Haven't done anything special.) - Unix Gtk/autoconf Makefiles work as before.

Stop looking for putty.chm alongside the binary. With this change, we stop expecting to find putty.chm alongside the executable file. That was a security hazard comparable to DLL hijacking, because of the risk that a malicious CHM file could be dropped into the same directory as putty.exe (e.g. if someone ran PuTTY from their browser's download dir).. Instead, the standalone putty.exe (and other binaries needing help) embed the proper CHM file within themselves, as a Windows resource, and if called on to display the help then they write the file out to a temporary location. This has the advantage that if you download and run the standalone putty.exe then you actually _get_ help, which previously didn't happen! The versions of the binaries in the installer don't each contain a copy of the help file; that would be extravagant. Instead, the installer itself writes a registry entry pointing at the proper help file, and the executables will look there. Another effect of this commit is that I've withdrawn support for the older .HLP format completely. It's now entirely outdated, and supporting it through this security fix would have been a huge pain. 2019-01-26 20:26:09 +00:00			`#include "winhelp.rc2"`
Tweak version string resources for EMBED_CHM. So that it's possible to distinguish the CHMful from the CHMless binary without running it. 2019-03-16 01:30:34 +00:00			`#include "win_res.rc2"`
