takes a third argument which is TRUE if the file is being opened for
writing and wants to be created in such a way that it's readable
only to the owner. This is used when saving private keys.
While I'm here, I also use this option when writing session logs, on
the general principle that they probably contain _something_
sensitive.
The new argument is only supported on Unix, for the moment. (I think
writing owner-accessible-only files is the default on Windows.)

in place of making a network connection. This has involved a couple
of minor infrastructure changes:
- New dlg_label_change() function in the dialog.h interface, which
alters the label on a control. Only used, at present, to switch
the Host Name and Port boxes into Serial Line and Speed, which
means that any platform not implementing serial connections (i.e.
currently all but Windows) does not need to actually do anything
in this function. Yet.
- New small piece of infrastructure: cfg_launchable() determines
whether a Config structure describes a session ready to be
launched. This was previously determined by seeing if it had a
non-empty host name, but it has to check the serial line as well
so there's a centralised function for it. I haven't gone through
all front ends and arranged for this function to be used
everywhere it needs to be; so far I've only checked Windows.
- Similarly, cfg_dest() returns the destination of a connection
(host name or serial line) in a text format suitable for putting
into messages such as `Unable to connect to %s'.

basis for other terminal-involving applications: a stub
implementation of the printing interface, an additional function in
notiming.c, and also I've renamed the front-end function beep() to
do_beep() so as not to clash with beep() in lib[n]curses.
[originally from svn r6479]
abstracted out; replace loops structured around a single interaction
per loop with less tortuous code (fixes: `ki-multiprompt-crash',
`ssh1-bad-passphrase-crash'; makes `ssh2-password-expiry' and
`proxy-password-prompt' easier).
The new interaction abstraction has a lot of fields that are unused in
the current code (things like window captions); this is groundwork for
`gui-auth'. However, ssh.c still writes directly to stderr; that may
want to be fixed.
In the GUI apps, user interaction is moved to terminal.c. This should
make it easier to fix things like UTF-8 username entry, although I
haven't attempted to do so. Also, control character filtering can be
tailored to be appropriate for individual front-ends; so far I don't
promise anything other than not having made it any worse.
I've tried to test this fairly exhaustively (although Mac stuff is
untested, as usual). It all seems to basically work, but I bet there
are new bugs. (One I know about is that you can no longer make the
PuTTY window go away with a ^D at the password prompt; this should be
fixed.)

Unix Plink sends everything sensible it can find, and it's fully configurable
from the GUI.
I'm not entirely sure about the precise set of modes that Unix Plink should
look at; informed tweaks are welcome.
Also the Mac bits are guesses (but trivial).

that the global `sesslist' got out of sync with the saved-sessions submenu,
causing the latter to launch the wrong sessions.
Also, Change Settings wasn't getting a fresh session list, so if the set of
sessions had changed since session startup it wouldn't reflect that (at least
until a session was saved). Fixed (on all platforms).
Therefore, since the global sesslist didn't seem to be useful, I've got rid
of it; config.c creates one as needed, as do the frontends. (Not tried
compiling Mac changes.)
Also, we now build the saved-sessions submenu on demand on Windows and Unix.
(This should probably also be done on the Mac.)

across mac_closeterm() and notify_remote_exit() but it will do for now.
Also, "PuTTY (inactive)" looks strange as a Mac window title in a way it
doesn't on Unix or Windows. Perhaps we should find another way of
indicating that a window contains a dead session?

This was harder than verify_ssh_host_key() and askalg() put
together, because:
(a) askappend() can be called at any time, since it's a side effect
of data-logging functions. Therefore there can be an unfinished
askappend() alert at any time, and hence the OS X front end has
to be prepared to _queue_ other alerts which occur during that
time.
(b) logging.c has to do something with data that comes in while
it's waiting for an answer to askappend(). It buffers it until
it knows what the user wants done with it. This involved
something of a reorganisation of logging.c.
[originally from svn r5344]
now returns an integer: 0 means cancel the SSH connection and 1
means continue with it. Additionally, they can return -1, which
means `front end has set an asynchronous alert box in motion, please
wait to be called back with the result', and each one is passed a
callback function pointer and context for this purpose.
I have not yet done the same to askappend() yet, because it will
take a certain amount of reorganisation of logging.c.
Importantly, this checkin means the host key dialog box now works on
OS X.

little reason not to, and implemented combining characters by naive
overprinting. It's not yet a lot of use without the ability to select
