Shift-hjklyubn for batch movement in NetHack, because they have
subtly different behaviour within the game and the Ctrl-moves are
more useful. Unfortunately, PuTTY's NetHack keypad mode doesn't
support Ctrl-moves. Therefore, it does now :-)

- Now we've fixed `win-versioninfo', choose some sensible outcomes from
the installer's comparisons of binary version numbers. Also, give the
installer _itself_ a matching binary version.
In particular, without this change, it would not have been possible
to downgrade PuTTY -- it would have silently left the "newer" files in
place. Now it will make some fuss, but permit it.
- Also remove descriptions from shortcuts, on the grounds that the
binaries have embedded descriptions now. (Although I've not checked
whether those are actually visible in the Start Menu.)
- At the request of various people (e.g., PJB), add flags so that if
files are in use at the time the (un)installer is run, replacement is
deferred to the next restart. (The user may be prompted to restart,
which isn't ideal; see comments).
This is supposed to make centrally-pushed silent upgrades more robust.
- Note some limitations of the installer.

After a suggestion by "Tkil", change the way we handle the specials menu

Tested on recent-ish MinGW (with GetWindowLongPtr but not GetClassLongPtr),
and VC++ 6.0 with a recent SDK, but not with vanilla VC++.

basis for other terminal-involving applications: a stub
implementation of the printing interface, an additional function in
notiming.c, and also I've renamed the front-end function beep() to
do_beep() so as not to clash with beep() in lib[n]curses.

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.)

a VERSIONINFO resource. The versioning scheme is described in
windows/version.rc2.
Some .rc files are now #included in others. In order to keep MSVC
project files working, these have been renamed to .rc2; there may exist
a better solution.
(This checkin also includes the documentation tweak missing from r6367.)
Testing performed:
- MinGW (cross-compiler): works
- VC nmake: works (tested with VC6)
- VC project files: builds with VERSIONINFO resource (no VER variable though)
- Borland: an old version of this patch was tested with it and more or
less worked, except that some of the VERSIONINFO strings were apparently
not terminated properly. Not attempted to work around this.
- LCC: not tested. Some fixes are in there from the last time we tried
this, but then the build ultimately failed and I haven't tried this
since that was fixed.
- Dev-C++: untested. (Haven't done anything special.)
- Unix Gtk/autoconf Makefiles work as before.

eaten by the trailing "\f0" on the RTF preamble. The RTF spec (1.0 and 1.6)
suggests that adding a space should defuse this situation and be otherwise
harmless, and it works for me (Win98).

Unix Plink sends everything sensible it can find, and it's fully configurable
from the GUI.
I'm not entirely sure about the precise set of modes that Unix Plink should
look at; informed tweaks are welcome.
Also the Mac bits are guesses (but trivial).

superseded by the "columns" mechanism, and it didn't allow an edit box to
be created with no label.
Also add no-label capability to a couple of other controls.

we were doing a forward+reverse lookup, which seems above and beyond the
call of duty, especially given that getaddrinfo() can be persuaded to
return a canonical name (this is what unix/uxnet.c does).
Unfortunately, I'm unable to test this at all as Win98 doesn't have
getaddrinfo(); hopefully I'll be able to find a mug with a modern version
of Windows to check it's not completely broken.
I think the effects of this are mostly cosmetic -- the canonical name is
used for window titles (and some people have been annoyed at the new
behaviour), other displays, and probably also for proxy exclusions.

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.)

acceptable on all versions of XP. Bah. Revert to pre-r5534 format (but
keep version number as 0.0.0.0). People who've had this problem have
reported putty.mft to make it go away.
NB, putting these updated manifests alongside the executable (e.g. as
`putty.exe.manifest') is also reported to work.

in question vary per OS: on Windows the problem is that WM_TIMER
sometimes goes off too early, so that GetTickCount() is right and
the callback time is wrong, whereas on Unix the problem is that my
GETTICKCOUNT implementation comes from the system clock which means
it can change suddenly and non-monotonically if the sysadmin is
messing about (meaning that the timing of callbacks from GTK or
select timeouts is _more_ likely to be right than GETTICKCOUNT).
This checkin provides band-aid workarounds for both problems, which
aren't pretty but ought to at least prevent catastrophic assertion
failure.

apparently because we turned both KEYDOWN and KEYUP events into new
KEYDOWN events.
I don't claim to understand the precise effect of this patch :( but
I'm reasonably confident that it only affects IME users, and experimentally
it doesn't seem to break anything obvious, so if piaip says it makes
things better that's good enough for me :)
