appears to merely fix the background colour (arranging for it to
have transparency rather than being on some kind of default grey
background), but it turns out to also fix the strange blurry
behaviour I see in the GNOME Taskbar, for no very obvious reason.

inside one single uxsel front end, better to do it centrally and
avoid passing zero flags on to the front end in the first place. I'm
sure other similarly structured front ends could get confused by it
too.

comes last on the compiler command line. This makes it easier to
override the normal compile options (since conflicting command-line
options usually follow a last-wins policy) in order to compile (for
example) the Unix version -g -O0.

want to know about any input events on a socket, it's simpler not to
call gdk_input_add() on it at all.
I hesitate to say `fixes', but ... this change _causes to go away_
the weird problem I had with blank host key dialogs. I have no
understanding of the chain of cause and effect between gdk_input_add
with zero flags and missing redraw events, but it seems like a
change I should make anyway, so I'm going to do so and hope the
problem doesn't come back :-/

account of r7117 having happened since then.

term_provide_resize_fn() was not being broken when the back end was
destroyed on session termination, causing resizing an inactive PuTTY
to be a segfault hazard.

(At least some versions of Win9x are gratuitously picky about the arguments to
CreateThread(), requiring lpThreadId not to be NULL.)

It's specific to the Windows installer, so it seems unnecessarily confusing to
have it in the top level of the source distribution alongside README.

quite big and tends to hide the existence of the `Serial' config
panel.
This is implemented by folding up every branch of depth 2 or more,
which with any luck might turn out to be general enough to carry
over unchanged if other branches start expanding. Then again, we may
have to fiddle with it again when that time comes; who knows?

subprocess. They were intended to make sure the child process didn't
inherit anything embarrassing or inconvenient from us, such as the
master end of its own pty, but now we instead do this by making sure
to set all our own fds to not-FD_CLOEXEC on creation. This should
fix Debian bug #357520.
(This doesn't seem to work _quite_ right in uxproxy.c's invocation
of a local proxy command: both ends of a GTK internal pipe end up in
the child process's fd space. This appears to be another GTK 1 bug,
inasmuch as it goes away when I build with Colin's preliminary GTK 2
patch; for the moment I think leaving that pipe lying around is
probably less harmful than hampering the proxy process's ability to
use extra fds by prior arrangement with PuTTY's parent process.)

about it very hard; it's a plausible fix for the observed cause of the extreme
CPU usage, being that we were asking to be notified of Windows messages and
then not dealing with them, plausibly leading to a loop. Works for me,
anyway.)

it'll let you see an identifier (SHGFP_TYPE_CURRENT) referenced since r7082.
(Actually, you need a pretty recent w32api before it's there at all.)
Morally, this should be defined for all toolchains, not just MinGW/Cygwin, but I'll leave that to people who have those toolchains.

Also add some other comments on our use of this API (since it's a horrible one
that I suspect will come back and haunt us...)

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.)

Application Data directory in preference to the old-fashioned
attempt to find the user's home directory, and use the _local-
machine_ Application Data directory in preference even to that.
SHGetFolderPath() is called via GetProcAddress, so this degrades
gracefully on old Windowses. (Tested myself on Win95.)
As part of this change, we now search for a location for the seed
file separately for reading and writing, so that installing the new
PuTTY should cause a seamless migration as the old seed file is read
from the old location and then a new one written to the new location.
`putty -cleanup' attempts to delete the seed file from _all_
affected locations.
Naturally, a user-specified seed file path in the Registry still
takes priority over all other means of finding the location.
