* 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.)

directory is adequate protection against a malicious server trying
to overwrite your files.

of polishing to bring them to what I think should in principle be
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.

line for every single .but file at the bottom of each page of the
HTML PuTTY docs. However, we can't _always_ replace that with a
single SVN revision, because there isn't always one available (SVN
still allows mixed working copies in which some files are
deliberately checked out against a different revision).
Hence, here's a mechanism for doing better. It uses `svnversion .'
to determine _whether_ a single revision number adequately describes
the current directory, and replaces all the version IDs with that if
so. If it can't do that, it uses the version IDs as before.
Also, this allows an explicit version string to be passed on the
make command line which will override _both_ these possibilities, so
that release documentation can be clearly labelled with the release
version number.

pestered with cron stderr messages every night, here are some
changes that remove over-long code lines from the PuTTY manual.

Updated manual to reflect reality (e.g. usage messages, '-p port' not actually
implemented, sprinkle references to '-i keyfile').
(I've put "Release 0.53" in the messages; let's hope this doesn't cause a
flood of "where is 0.53?" email.)
I don't guarantee that the result is entirely sane and sensible in all
respects, but it is at least consistent.

of scp.c, psftp.c and plink.c into it. Additionally, add `batch
mode', in which all the interactive prompts (bad host key, log file
exists, insecure cipher, password prompt) are disabled and safe
responses are assumed. (The idea being that if you run PSCP, for
example, in a cron job then you'd probably rather it failed and
exited instead of leaving the cron job wedged while it waits for
user input that will never arrive.)
