single most frequently asked thing which isn't in the FAQ (it's in
feedback.but instead), so let's add it. I'm uncertain that the
people who mail us asking things like `how do I read my email' and
`how do I access $database' will successfully recognise this more
general question as one which includes their specific one, but it's
worth a try.

prompts, to make it more obvious if a server is attempting to spoof a local
passphrase prompt.
I believe an alert user could have spotted this in all cases in SSH-2,
although perhaps not in SSH-1. (But they'd have to have enabled
TIS/CryptoCard.)
[originally from svn r5450]
its `line != NULL' assertion, so I've replaced the assertion with a
call to fatalbox() giving oodles of information. I may still not be
able to reproduce it, but at least next time it happens we should
see a decent amount of debugging data!
[originally from svn r5447]
Port forwardings are set up before initialising the last few details
of the main shell session, so ssh->state can reasonably hold values
other than SSH_STATE_SESSION and SSH_STATE_CLOSED during calls to
sshfwd_*.
[originally from svn r5446]
connection_fatal(), since the latter is entitled to destroy the
backend so `ssh' may no longer be valid once it returns.
For the Unix port, switch exit(0) to gtk_main_quit() in
notify_remote_exit(), so that we don't exit before the subsequent
connection_fatal()!

portfwd[] array. (Not sure what would happen in this case, mind.)
Also modify -L/-R/-D code to cope with IPv4/IPv6 tunnels in saved settings.

1-byte buffer overflow when reading .PPK files with long lines (>=128 bytes
in header value -- probably only happened in practice in the comment field).

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?

a few things that will faze whatever we're using currently (2.0.19 or
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)
- "Create a Start Menu group" now handled via IS' own mechanism.

I wanted to get to -- "software caused connection abort" and friends --
are going to be more involved (probably requiring some cross-platform
notion of help contexts), and these ones hardly seem worth the effort.
Still, I've done it now.
Side-effect: Pageant now uses the same `hinst' and `hwnd' globals as
everything else. Tested basic functionality.
[originally from svn r5417]
still only used for the host key popups. Side-effects:
- requested_help is a winstuff.h global
- Pageant now defines winstuff.h globals
(Also, my previous fix to my improved host-key dialogs only got the "changed"
case, not the "unknown" case. Some days I shouldn't be let near a keyboard.)
[originally from svn r5415]
a separate CWD for the file requester, so that when the Open File box is not
open Pageant should stay where it was started.
(Also some other minor cleanups in this area of Pageant.)

[this svn revision also touched putty-wishlist]
- will now display a reason when it fails to load a key
- uses existing error return from native keys
- import.c had a lot of error descriptions which weren't going anywhere;
since the strings are probably taking up space in the binary, we
may as well use them
[originally from svn r5408]
keys was apparently incorrect; prior to r1413, it was both allowed, and
generated for passphraseless keys. Remove it and associated validation so that
people are able to load such keys into PuTTYgen to upgrade them, as suggested.

[SessionWindow dealloc] (which was required in order to avoid
segfaulting when a redraw timer fired for a closed session window!).

FindFirstFile(), with hilarious consequences for recursive transfers in
PSFTP. (PSCP appears to behave fine; it does its own "."/".." removal.)
