behave like a pointer. In particular, the right thing to set a
HANDLE to to indicate that it's invalid is INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE, not
NULL. Crack down on sloppy use of NULL HANDLEs across all Windows
code.
(There is one oddity, which is that {Create,Open}FileMapping are
documented to return a NULL HANDLE instead of INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE
on failure. Shrug. If MS want to be inconsistent, I suppose I have
to live with it.)

occasionally blocking the process. That appears to be the last of
the annoying data loss issues, so I think the Windows serial back
end actually looks vaguely reliable now. Phew.

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'.

thread-based approach to stdin and stdout, wraps it in a halfway
sensible API, and makes it a globally available service across all
network tools.
There is no direct functionality enhancement from this checkin:
winplink.c now talks to the new API instead of doing it all
internally, but does nothing different as a result.
However, this should lay the groundwork for several diverse pieces
of work in future: pipe-based ProxyCommand on Windows, a serial port
back end, and (hopefully) a pipe-based means of communicating with
Pageant, which should have sensible blocking behaviour and hence
permit asynchronous agent requests and decrypt-on-demand.

Shift-hjklyubn for batch movement in NetHack, because they have

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

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.)

I don't claim to understand the precise effect of this patch :( but

it doesn't seem to break anything obvious, so if piaip says it makes

* All the PuTTY tools for Windows and Unix now contain the fingerprints of
the Master Keys. The method for accessing them is crude but universal:
a new "-pgpfp" command-line option. (Except Unix PuTTYgen, which takes
"--pgpfp" just to be awkward.)
* Move the key policy discussion from putty-website/keys.html to
putty/doc/pgpkeys.but, and autogenerate the former from the latter.
Also tweak the text somewhat and include the fingerprints of the
Master Keys themselves.
(I've merged the existing autogeneration scripts into a single new
one; I've left the old scripts and keys.html around until such time
as the webmonster reviews the changes and plumbs in the new script;
he should remove the old files then.)

thereabouts?), but nothing desperately modern. (NB, the 0.57 putty.iss works
fine with 5.0.8 and the installer is even 40k smaller.)
Notable changes:
- Uninstallation now runs a variant of `putty -cleanup'. The variance is
only in the text displayed; the user is still prompted, and the default
action is (now) "keep" in both cases.
- Optionally add an icon in the Quick Launch bar.
- Make desktop item optionally for all users. (not tested)

we don't also _use_ that frontend handle everywhere we now use the global

release quality. Unlike the unfix.org patches themselves, this
checkin enables IPv6 by default; if you want to leave it out, you
have to build with COMPAT=-DNO_IPV6.
I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

and ssh.c and telnet.c both invoke a new module pinger.c which takes
