9a8c58a64b Added a framework for importing foreign key formats, and implemented
importing of OpenSSH SSH2 private key files (both encrypted and
unencrypted). Seems to work fine.

fcb31d5cfe Well, there was bound to be one I'd forgotten: the new Features

now it does. Woo.

a9fd52e72f Update the FAQ to reflect 0.52 as being a current release rather
than a future prospect. I'm going to move the beta-0-52 tag on this
file, but that won't affect release binaries that have already been
built.

Simon Tatham
466b1c82d5 Create the long-awaited console.c, and move the common routines out
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.)

[originally from svn r1521]
2001-12-29 17:25:07 +00:00
Simon Tatham
726f9dde7e Add a configurable option to make Return in Telnet send an ordinary
^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.

[originally from svn r1520]

69b15bcc90 Add a FAQ about keyboard mapping problems: basically explaining that
we really need to know what character sequence you were _expecting_
your function key to generate before we can even think about making
PuTTY generate it.

88295925be Fiddle the header of the new feedback section to make it carefully
ambiguous about whether it thinks it's on the website or in the manual.

[originally from svn r1503]
2001-12-16 15:14:36 +00:00
Simon Tatham
20e588c35e Add two extra appendices giving the licence text and details of how
to give feedback. (I think the latter has suddenly become worthwhile
now we have the ability to distribute a help file; so people won't
have to come to the website for the feedback information.)

[originally from svn r1502]
2001-12-16 14:56:02 +00:00

0d7dc070d5 Add the `local' command set to PSFTP: lcd, lpwd, and ! to spawn a
Windows command.

[originally from svn r1501]
2001-12-16 13:33:04 +00:00
Simon Tatham
88a3baa065 Add the remote counterpart for the `local port forwardings accept
connections from outside localhost' switch. Interestingly OpenSSH
3.0 appears to ignore this (though I know it works because ssh.com
3.0 gets it right, and the SSH packet dump agrees that I'm doing the
right thing).

[originally from svn r1496]
2001-12-15 12:15:24 +00:00
Simon Tatham
3ed0d44f16 Retired the #ifdef DUMP_PACKETS stuff in ssh.c because I'm utterly
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.

f9cbbc3387 Updated the PuTTYgen section in pubkey.but so that it gives
individual documentation of the various PuTTYgen controls; also
implemented context help in PuTTYgen to go with it. Shame there

7983d2dd28 Disable username switching between SSH2 auth attempts, and add a
configurable option so users can re-enable the feature _if_ they
know they have an SSH2 server that isn't going to get shirty about
it. Inspired by a spectacular increase in OpenSSH's shirtiness.

e5764eb695 Add help support to Pageant. (For the primary - non-context - help,
we just invoke the same help file and jump to the Pageant chapter.
It would be nice to be able to bring up the contents box with the
Pageant chapter expanded, but I don't think WinHelp() allows us to
request this.)

fc2a4f845d Documentation: filled the last few gaps and cleaned a few things up.
