session will connect to the same instance again.
\S2{psusan-manpage-examples-wsl} Windows Subsystem for Linux
On Windows, the default way to use WSL is to run the \cw{wsl} program,
or one of its aliases, in a Windows console, either by launching it
from an existing command prompt, or by using a shortcut that opens it
in a fresh console. This gives you a Linux terminal environment, but
in a Windows console window.
If you'd prefer to interact with the same environment using PuTTY as
the terminal (for example, if you prefer PuTTY's mouse shortcuts for
copy and paste), you can set it up by installing \cw{psusan} in the
Linux environment, and then setting up a PuTTY saved session that
talks to it. A nice way to do this is to use the name of the WSL
distribution as the \q{host name}:
\b set the local proxy command to \cq{wsl -d %host
/usr/local/bin/psusan} (or wherever you installed \cw{psusan} in the
Linux system)
\b enter the name of a particular WSL distribution in the host name
box. (For example, if you installed WSL Debian in the standard way
from the Windows store, this will just be \q{Debian}.)
\b set the protocol to \q{Bare ssh-connection}, as usual.
Like all the other examples here, this also permits you to forward
ports in and out of the WSL environment (e.g. expose a WSL2 network
service through the hypervisor's internal NAT), forward Pageant into
it, and so on.
