users. Update the file selection dialogs to mention it per the usual Windows
convention, and also sprinkle references to it throughout the docs. I've
also scattered hints that most tools need PuTTY's native format; perhaps this
will reduce the frequency with which FAQ A.1.2 trips people up.

and term_reconfig() now passes in a new structure which is copied
over the top. This means that the old and new structures can be
compared, and the _current_ as well as default states of auto wrap
mode, DEC origin mode, BCE, blinking text and character classes can
be conveniently reconfigured in mid-session without requiring a
terminal reset.

probably incompatible with some X clients, and tickles a bug in
at least one version of OpenSSH.

people have been worried by this now, and it's probably worth
documenting that it's perfectly normal.

SockAddr, which just contains an unresolved hostname and is created
by a stub function in *net.c. It's an error to pass this to most of
the real-meat functions in *net.c; these fake addresses should have
been dealt with by the time they get down that far. proxy.c now
contains name_lookup(), a wrapper on sk_namelookup() which decides
whether or not to do real DNS, and the individual proxy
implementations each deal sensibly with being handed an unresolved
address and avoid ever passing one down to *net.c.

well, though it's a lot less useful since you still can't bind to
low-numbered ports of odd loopback IPs. Should work in principle for
SSH2 remote forwardings as well as local ones, but OpenSSH seems
unwilling to cooperate.

told you so was wrong'. :-)

it's automatically deactivated by any keypress, so that command-line

Updated manual to reflect reality (e.g. usage messages, '-p port' not actually

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.)

^M instead of the Telnet New Line code. Unix-type telnetds don't
care one way or the other; RDB claims some telnetds prefer Telnet
NL; and now someone has found one that can't deal with Telnet NL and
prefers ^M. Sigh.

right thing).

sick of recompiling to enable packet dumps. SSH packet dumping is
now provided as a logging option, and dumps to putty.log like all
the other logging options. While I'm at it I cleaned up the format
so that packet types are translated into strings for easy browsing.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECT: in the course of this work I had to re-enable
the SSH1 packet length checks which it turns out hadn't actually
been active for some time, so it's possible things might break as a
result. If need be I can always disable those checks for the 0.52
release and think about it more carefully later.

request this.)
