On all platforms, you can now configure which clipboard the mouse
pastes from, which clipboard Ctrl-Ins and Shift-Ins access, and which
Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-Shift-V access. In each case, the options are:
- nothing at all
- a clipboard which is implicitly written by the act of mouse
selection (the PRIMARY selection on X, CLIP_LOCAL everywhere else)
- the standard clipboard written by explicit copy/paste UI actions
(CLIPBOARD on X, the unique system clipboard elsewhere).
Also, you can control whether selecting text with the mouse _also_
writes to the explicitly accessed clipboard.
The wording of the various messages changes between platforms, but the
basic UI shape is the same everywhere.
This lays some groundwork for making PuTTY's cut and paste handling
more flexible in the area of which clipboard(s) it reads and writes,
if more than one is available on the system.
I've introduced a system of list macros which define an enumeration of
integer clipboard ids, some defined centrally in putty.h (at present
just a CLIP_NULL which never has any text in it, because that seems
like the sort of thing that will come in useful for configuring a
given copy or paste UI action to be ignored) and some defined per
platform. All the front end functions that copy and paste take a
clipboard id, and the Terminal structure is now configured at startup
to tell it which clipboard id it should paste from on a mouse click,
and which it should copy from on a selection.
However, I haven't actually added _real_ support for multiple X11
clipboards, in that the Unix front end supports a single CLIP_SYSTEM
regardless of whether it's in OS X or GTK mode. So this is currently a
NFC refactoring which does nothing but prepare the way for real
changes to come.
Previously, both the Unix and Windows front ends would respond to a
paste action by retrieving data from the system clipboard, converting
it appropriately, _storing_ it in a persistent dynamic data block
inside the front end, and then calling term_do_paste(term), which in
turn would call back to the front end via get_clip() to retrieve the
current contents of that stored data block.
But, as far as I can tell, this was a completely pointless mechanism,
because after a data block was written into this storage area, it
would be immediately used for exactly one paste, and then never
accessed again until the next paste action caused it to be freed and
replaced with a new chunk of pasted data.
So why on earth was it stored persistently at all, and why that
callback mechanism from frontend to terminal back to frontend to
retrieve it for the actual paste action? I have no idea. This change
removes the entire system and replaces it with the completely obvious
alternative: the character-set-converted version of paste data is
allocated in a _local_ variable in the frontend paste functions,
passed directly to term_do_paste which now takes (buffer,length)
parameters, and freed immediately afterwards. get_clip() is gone.
This is another piece of long-overdue refactoring similar to the
recent commit e3796cb77. But where that one dealt with normalisation
of stuff already stored _in_ a Conf by whatever means (including, in
particular, handling a user typing 'username@host.name' into the
Hostname box of the GUI session dialog box), this one deals with
handling argv entries and putting them into the Conf.
This isn't exactly a pure no-functional-change-at-all refactoring. On
the other hand, it isn't a full-on cleanup that completely
rationalises all the user-visible behaviour as well as the code
structure. It's somewhere in between: I've preserved all the behaviour
quirks that I could imagine a reason for having intended, but taken
the opportunity to _not_ faithfully replicate anything I thought was
clearly just a bug.
So, for example, the following inconsistency is carefully preserved:
the command 'plink -load session nextword' treats 'nextword' as a host
name if the loaded session hasn't provided a hostname already, and
otherwise treats 'nextword' as the remote command to execute on the
already-specified remote host, but the same combination of arguments
to GUI PuTTY will _always_ treat 'nextword' as a hostname, overriding
a hostname (if any) in the saved session. That makes some sense to me
because of the different shapes of the overall command lines.
On the other hand, there are two behaviour changes I know of as a
result of this commit: a third argument to GUI PuTTY (after a hostname
and port) now provokes an error message instead of being silently
ignored, and in Plink, if you combine a -P option (specifying a port
number) with the historical comma-separated protocol selection prefix
on the hostname argument (which I'd completely forgotten even existed
until this piece of work), then the -P will now override the selected
protocol's default port number, whereas previously the default port
would win. For example, 'plink -P 12345 telnet,hostname' will now
connect via Telnet to port 12345 instead of to port 23.
There may be scope for removing or rethinking some of the command-
line syntax quirks in the wake of this change. If we do decide to do
anything like that, then hopefully having it all in one place will
make it easier to remove or change things consistently across the
tools.
A more or less identical piece of code to sanitise the CONF_host
string prior to session launch existed in Windows PuTTY and both
Windows and Unix Plink. It's long past time it was centralised.
While I'm here, I've added a couple of extra comments in the
centralised version, including one that - unfortunately - tries _but
fails_ to explain why a string of the form "host.name:1234" doesn't
get the suffix moved into CONF_port the way "user@host" moves the
prefix into CONF_username. Commit c1c1bc471 is the one I'm referring
to in the comment, and unfortunately it has an unexplained one-liner
log message from before I got into the habit of being usefully
verbose.
It's an incoherent concept! There should not be any such thing as an
error box that terminates the entire program but is not modal. If it's
bad enough to terminate the whole program, i.e. _all_ currently live
connections, then there's no point in permitting progress to continue
in windows other than the affected one, because all windows are
affected anyway.
So all previous uses of fatalbox() have become modalfatalbox(), except
those which looked to me as if they shouldn't have been fatal in the
first place, e.g. lingering pieces of error handling in winnet.c which
ought to have had the severity of 'give up on this particular Socket
and close it' rather than 'give up on the ENTIRE UNIVERSE'.
ATTR_REVERSE was being handled in the front ends, and was causing the
foreground and background colours to be switched. (I'm not completely
sure why I made that design decision; it might be purely historical,
but then again, it might also be because reverse video is one effect
on the fg and bg colours that must still be performed even in unusual
frontend-specific situations like display-driven monochrome mode.)
This affected both explicit reverse video enabled using SGR 7, and
also the transient reverse video arising from mouse selection. Thanks
to Markus Gans for reporting the bug in the latter, which when I
investigated it turned out to affect the former as well.
I've done this on a 'where possible' basis: in Windows paletted mode
(in case anyone is still using an old enough graphics card to need
that!) I simply haven't bothered, and will completely ignore the dim
flag.
Markus Gans points out that some applications which (not at all
unreasonably) don't trust $TERM to tell them the full capabilities of
their terminal will use the sequence "OSC 4 ; nn ; ? BEL" to ask for
the colour-palette value in position nn, and they may not particularly
care _what_ the results are but they will use them to decide whether
the right number of colour palette entries even exist.
Otherwise, moving the cursor (at least in active, filled-cell mode) on
to a true-coloured character cell causes it to vanish completely
because the cell's colours override the thing that differentiates the
cursor.
I'm not sure if any X11 monochrome visuals or Windows paletted display
modes are still around, but just in case they are, we shouldn't
attempt true colour on either kind of display.
This is a heavily rewritten version of a patch originally by Lorenz
Diener; it was tidied up somewhat by Christian Brabandt, and then
tidied up more by me. The basic idea is to add to the termchar
structure a pair of small structs encoding 24-bit RGB values, each
with a flag indicating whether it's turned on; if it is, it overrides
any other specification of fg or bg colour for that character cell.
I've added a test line to colours.txt containing a few example colours
from /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt. In fact it makes quite a good demo to run
the whole of rgb.txt through this treatment, with a command such as
perl -pe 's!^\s*(\d+)\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+).*$!\e[38;2;$1;$2;$3m$&\e[m!' rgb.txt
Ilya Shipitsin sent me a list of errors reported by a tool 'cppcheck',
which I hadn't seen before, together with some fixes for things
already taken off that list. This change picks out all the things from
the remaining list that I could quickly identify as actual errors,
which it turns out are all format-string goofs along the lines of
using a %d with an unsigned int, or a %u with a signed int, or (in the
cases in charset/utf8.c) an actual _size_ mismatch which could in
principle have caused trouble on a big-endian target.
This too is not in the list of known DLLs on Windows 10. I don't know
of any actual viable hijacking attack based on it, which according to
my reading of MSDN (specifically, a rather vague hint in
https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ff919712) _may_ be because we
mention the common controls assembly in our application manifest; but
better safe than sorry.
Now the entire list of remaining DLLs that PuTTY links against at load
time is a subset of the Win10 known DLLs list, so that _should_ mean
that everything we load before we've deployed our own defence
(SetDefaultDllDirectories) is defended against for us by Windows
itself.
It's not on the default list of important system 'known DLLs' stored
at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\KnownDLLs (see
https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/DLL+hijacking+vulnerabilities/9445/ )
which apparently makes it exempt from Windows's standard DLL hijacking
defence, i.e. if an executable links against it in the normal way then
that executable will be vulnerable to DLL hijacking from a file called
winmm.dll in the same directory as it.
The solution is to load it dynamically _after_ we've locked down our
DLL search path, which fortunately PuTTY's code base is well used to
doing already for other DLLs.
I think all of the cases in this switch must have originally said
(shift_state ? 'this' : 'that'), and in all but the VK_NUMPAD5 case
the two options were different, and I left VK_NUMPAD5 containing a
redundant ?: just to make it line up in a nice table with the others.
But now the others all have more options than that because I had to
support Ctrl as well as Shift modifiers, so there's no reason to have
that silly ?: lingering around (and it annoys Coverity).
Avoided referring to some functions and header files that aren't there
in the winelib world (_vsnprintf, _stricmp, SecureZeroMemory,
multimon.h), and worked around a really amazingly annoying issue in
which Winelib objects to you using the type 'fd_set' unless you
included winsock2.h before stdlib.h.
Partly to reassure the user that they got what they asked for, and
partly so that's a clue for us in the logs when we get bug reports.
This involved repurposing platform_psftp_post_option_setup() (no longer
used since e22120fe) as platform_psftp_pre_conn_setup(), and moving it
to after logging is set up.
These are benign, I think. clang warns about casting non-pointer-sized
integers to pointers, but the Windows API actually does sometimes
involve values that are either pointers or _small_ integers, so in the
two cases involved I just cast through ULONG_PTR to silence the
warning. And clang insists that the integer whose address I give to
sk_getxdmdata is still uninitialised afterwards, which is just a lie.
This change applies to every situation when GUI PuTTY knowingly spawns
another GUI PuTTY, to wit, the System menu options 'New Session',
'Duplicate Session' and the 'Saved Sessions' submenu.
(Literally speaking, what we actually pass through to the sub-PuTTY's
command line is not the "-restrict-acl" option itself, but a special
prefix "&R", which has the same meaning but which lives in the special
pre-argv-splitting command-line namespace like the magic options used
for Duplicate Session and the old '@sessionname' prefix which the
Saved Sessions submenu still uses. Otherwise, by the time we split up
argv and recognised -restrict-acl, it would be too late to parse those
other options.)
One case in which PuTTY spawns a subprocess and this change _doesn't_
apply is when the subprocess is a proxy command which happens to be a
Plink. Recognising Plink commands in that situation would be fragile
and unreliable, and in any case if the user wants a proxy Plink to be
ACL-restricted, they are in control of its exact command line so they
can add -restrict-acl themselves.
These ones are stylistic rather than potential bugs: mostly signedness
of char pointers in cases where they clearly aren't going to cause the
wrong thing to actually happen, and one thing in winsecur.c where
clang would have preferred an extra pair of braces around some
initialisers but it's legal with or without. But since some of clang's
warnings turn out to be quite useful, it seems worth silencing these
harmless ones so as to be able to see the rest.
As documented in bug 'win-process-acl-finesse', we've had enough
assorted complaints about it breaking various non-malicious pieces of
Windows process interaction (ranging from git->plink integration to
screen readers for the vision-impaired) that I think it's more
sensible to set the process back to its default level of protection.
This precaution was never a fully effective protection anyway, due to
the race condition at process startup; the only properly effective
defence would have been to prevent malware running under the same user
ID as PuTTY in the first place, so in that sense, nothing has changed.
But people who want the arguable defence-in-depth advantage of the ACL
restriction can now turn it on with the '-restrict-acl' command-line
option, and it's up to them whether they can live with the assorted
inconveniences that come with it.
In the course of this change, I've centralised a bit more of the
restriction code into winsecur.c, to avoid repeating the error
handling in multiple places.
The algorithm Windows uses to generate AppUserModelIDs "hangs on" to
removable media (CDs/DVDs) if PuTTY is launched with a CD/DVD in a drive.
Set the AppUserModelID explicitly to avoid using this algorithm.
At least on systems providing SetDefaultDllDirectories, this should
stop PuTTY from being willing to load DLLs from its containing
directory - which makes no difference when it's been properly
installed (in which case the application dir contains no DLLs anyway),
but does if it's being run from somewhere uncontrolled like a browser
downloads directory.
Preliminary testing suggests that this shouldn't break any existing
deliberate use of DLLs, including GSSAPI providers.
Previously only Unix front ends bothered to include it, on the basis
that only the pty backend needed it (to set IUTF8 in the pty). We're
about to need it everywhere else too.
These integer types are correct for the id/handle parameter to
AppendMenu / InsertMenu / DeleteMenu, and also for the return type of
dialog box procedures.
We also have the special-purpose -DUNPROTECT to disable just the ACL
changes, but if you want to compile without any Windows security API
support at all (e.g. experimentally building against winelib) then
it's easier not to have to specify both defines separately.
logevent() doesn't do printf-style formatting (though the logeventf
wrapper in ssh.c does), so if you need to format a message, it has to
be done separately with dupprintf.
By default Windows processes have wide open ACLs which allow interference
by other processes running as the same user. Adjust our ACL to make this
a bit harder.
Because it's useful to protect PuTTYtel as well, carve winsecur.c into
advapi functions and wincapi.c for crypt32 functions.
This is generated in response to the SendInput() Windows API call, if
that in turn is passed an KEYBDINPUT structure with KEYEVENTF_UNICODE
set. That method of input generation is used by programs such as
'WinCompose' to send an arbitrary Unicode character as if it had been
typed at the keyboard, even if the keyboard doesn't actually provide a
key for it.
Like VK_PROCESSKEY, this key code is an exception to our usual policy
of manually translating keystrokes: we handle it by calling
TranslateMessage, to get back the Unicode character it contains as a
WM_CHAR message.
(If that Unicode character in turn is outside the BMP, it may come
back as a pair of WM_CHARs in succession containing UTF-16 surrogates;
if so, that's OK, because the new Unicode WM_CHAR handler can cope.)
This causes WM_CHAR messages sent to us to have a wParam containing a
16-bit value encoded in UTF-16, rather than an 8-bit value encoded in
the system code page.
As far as I can tell, there aren't many other knock-on effects - e.g.
you can still interact with the window using ordinary char-based API
functions such as SetWindowText, and the Windows API will do the
necessary conversions behind the scenes. However, even so, I'm half
expecting some sort of unforeseen bug to show up as a result of this.
Having found a lot of unfixed constness issues in recent development,
I thought perhaps it was time to get proactive, so I compiled the
whole codebase with -Wwrite-strings. That turned up a huge load of
const problems, which I've fixed in this commit: the Unix build now
goes cleanly through with -Wwrite-strings, and the Windows build is as
close as I could get it (there are some lingering issues due to
occasional Windows API functions like AcquireCredentialsHandle not
having the right constness).
Notable fallout beyond the purely mechanical changing of types:
- the stuff saved by cmdline_save_param() is now explicitly
dupstr()ed, and freed in cmdline_run_saved.
- I couldn't make both string arguments to cmdline_process_param()
const, because it intentionally writes to one of them in the case
where it's the argument to -pw (in the vain hope of being at least
slightly friendly to 'ps'), so elsewhere I had to temporarily
dupstr() something for the sake of passing it to that function
- I had to invent a silly parallel version of const_cmp() so I could
pass const string literals in to lookup functions.
- stripslashes() in pscp.c and psftp.c has the annoying strchr nature
This was an old bug, fixed around 0.59, which apparently regressed
when I rewrote the main event loop using the toplevel_callback
mechanism.
Investigation just now suggests that it has to do with my faulty
assumption that Windows PeekMessage would deliver messages in its
message queue in FIFO order (i.e. that the thing calling itself a
message queue is actually a _queue_). In fact my WM_NETEVENT seems to
like to jump the queue, so that once a steady stream of them starts
arriving, we never do anything else in the main event loop (except
deal with handles).
Worked around in a simple and slightly bodgy way, namely, we don't
stop looping on PeekMessage and run our toplevel callbacks until we've
either run out of messages completely or else seen at least one that
_isn't_ a WM_NETEVENT. That way we should reliably interleave NETEVENT
processing with processing of other stuff.
I'm not actually sure why we've always had back ends notify ldisc of
changes to echo/edit settings by giving ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) a
special meaning, instead of by having a separate dedicated notify
function with its own prototype and parameter set. Coverity's recent
observation that the two kinds of call don't even have the same
requirements on the ldisc (particularly, whether ldisc->term can be
NULL) makes me realise that it's really high time I separated the two
conceptually different operations into actually different functions.
While I'm here, I've renamed the confusing ldisc_update() function
which that special operation ends up feeding to, because it's not
actually a function applying to an ldisc - it applies to a front end.
So ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) is now ldisc_echoedit_update(ldisc), and
that in turn figures out the current echo/edit settings before passing
them on to frontend_echoedit_update(). I think that should be clearer.
The IDM_RECONF handler unconditionally calls ldisc_configure to
reconfigure the line discipline for the new echo/edit settings, but in
fact ldisc can be NULL if no session is currently active. (Indeed, the
very next line acknowledges this, by testing it for NULL before
calling ldisc_send!) Thanks to Alexander Wong for the report.

On Windows (X mouse reporting of the mouse wheel isn't currently done
by the Unix front end, though I'm shortly about to fix that too) a
mouse wheel event is translated into a virtual button, and we send
both a press and a release of that button to terminal.c, which encodes
both in X mouse reporting escape sequences and passes them on to the
server. This isn't consistent with what xterm does - scroll-wheel
events are encoded _like_ button presses, but differ semantically in
that they don't have matching releases. So we're updating to match
xterm.

I've gone through everywhere we handle host names / addresses (on
command lines, in PuTTY config, in port forwarding, in X display
names, in host key storage...) and tried to make them handle IPv6
literals sensibly, by using the host_str* functions I introduced in my
previous commit. Generally it's now OK to use a bracketed IPv6 literal
anywhere a hostname might have been valid; in a few cases where no
ambiguity exists (e.g. no :port suffix is permitted anyway)
unbracketed IPv6 literals are also acceptable.
[originally from svn r10120]
The basic strategy is described at the top of the new source file
sshshare.c. In very brief: an 'upstream' PuTTY opens a Unix-domain
socket or Windows named pipe, and listens for connections from other
PuTTYs wanting to run sessions on the same server. The protocol spoken
down that socket/pipe is essentially the bare ssh-connection protocol,
using a trivial binary packet protocol with no encryption, and the
upstream has to do some fiddly transformations that I've been
referring to as 'channel-number NAT' to avoid resource clashes between
the sessions it's managing.
This is quite different from OpenSSH's approach of using the Unix-
domain socket as a means of passing file descriptors around; the main
reason for that is that fd-passing is Unix-specific but this system
has to work on Windows too. However, there are additional advantages,
such as making it easy for each downstream PuTTY to run its own
independent set of port and X11 forwardings (though the method for
making the latter work is quite painful).
Sharing is off by default, but configuration is intended to be very
easy in the normal case - just tick one box in the SSH config panel
and everything else happens automatically.

This restores PuTTY's backward compatibility to versions of Windows
too old to have ToUnicodeEx in their system libraries, which was
accidentally broken in 0.63.
[originally from svn r10061]
A couple of users report that my recent reworking of the Windows
top-level message loop has led to messages occasionally being lost,
and MsgWaitForMultipleObjects blocking when it ought to have been
called with a zero timeout. I haven't been able to reproduce this
myself, but according to one reporter, PeekMessage(PM_NOREMOVE) is
effective at checking for a non-empty message queue in a way that
GetQueueStatus is not. Switch to using that instead. Thanks to Eric
Flumerfelt for debugging and testing help.
[originally from svn r10057]
Jochen Erwied points out that once you've used PeekMessage to remove
_one_ message from the message queue, MsgWaitForMultipleObjects will
consider the whole queue to have been 'read', or at least looked at
and deemed uninteresting, and so it will block until a further message
comes in. Hence, my change in r10040 which stops us from looping on
PeekMessage until the queue is empty has the effect of causing the
rest of the message queue not to be acted on until a new message comes
in to unblock it. Fix by checking if the queue is nonempty in advance
of calling MsgWaitForMultipleObjects, and if so, giving it a zero
timeout just as we do if there's a pending toplevel callback.

This change attempts to reinstate as a universal property something
which was sporadically true of the ad-hockery that came before
toplevel callbacks: that if there's a _very long_ queue of things to
be done through the callback mechanism, the doing of them will be
interleaved with re-checks of other event sources, which might (e.g.)
cause a flag to be set which makes the next callback decide not to do
anything after all.
[originally from svn r10040]
It was one of those things that went in ages ago on Windows and never
got replicated in the Unix front end. And it needn't be: ldisc.c is a
perfect place to put it, since it knows which of the data it's sending
is based on a keystroke and which is automatically generated, and it
also has access to the terminal context. So now a keypress can
interrupt a runaway paste on all platforms.
[originally from svn r10025]
Again, I've removed the special-purpose ad-hockery from the assorted
front end message loops that dealt with deferred handling of socket
errors, and instead uxnet.c and winnet.c arrange that for themselves
by calling the new general top-level callback mechanism.
[originally from svn r10023]
Instead of setting a must_close_session flag and having special code
in the message loop to check it, we'll schedule the call to
close_session using the new top-level callback system.

I've removed the ad-hoc front-end bodgery in the Windows and GTK ports
to arrange for term_paste to be called at the right moments, and
instead, terminal.c itself deals with knowing when to send the next
chunk of pasted data using a combination of timers and the new
top-level callback mechanism.
As a happy side effect, it's now all in one place so I can actually
understand what it's doing! It turns out that what all that confusing
code was up to is: send a line of pasted data, and delay sending the
next line until either a CR or LF is returned from the server
(typically indicating that the pasted text has been received and
echoed) or 450ms elapse, whichever comes first.
[originally from svn r10020]
This is a little like schedule_timer, in that the callback you provide
will be run from the top-level message loop of whatever application
you're in; but unlike the timer mechanism, it will happen
_immediately_.
The aim is to provide a general way to avoid re-entrance of code, in
cases where just _doing_ the thing you want done is liable to trigger
a confusing recursive call to the function in which you came to the
decision to do it; instead, you just request a top-level callback at
the message loop's earliest convenience, and do it then.

PuTTY does not trim a colon suffix off the hostname if it contains
_more than one_ colon. This allows IPv6 literals to be entered.
(Really we need to do a much bigger revamp of all uses of hostnames to
arrange that square-bracketed IPv6 literals work consistently, but
this at least removes a regression over 0.62.)

This enables support for keys which generate Unicode characters that

First, make absolute times unsigned. This means that it's safe to
depend on their overflow behaviour (which is undefined for signed
integers). This requires a little extra care in handling comparisons,
but I think I've correctly adjusted them all.
Second, functions registered with schedule_timer() are guaranteed to be
called with precisely the time that was returned by schedule_timer().
Thus, it's only necessary to check these values for equality rather than
doing risky range checks, so do that.
The timing code still does lots that's undefined, unnecessary, or just
wrong, but this is a good start.

allocated type.
The main reason for this is to stop it from taking up a fixed large
amount of space in every 'struct value' subunion in conf.c, although
that makes little difference so far because Filename is still doing
the same thing (and is therefore next on my list). However, the
removal of its arbitrary length limit is not to be sneezed at.

data channels. Should comprehensively fix 'half-closed', in principle,
though it's a big and complicated change and so there's a good chance
I've made at least one mistake somewhere.
All connections should now be rigorous about propagating end-of-file
(or end-of-data-stream, or socket shutdown, or whatever) independently
in both directions, except in frontends with no mechanism for sending
explicit EOF (e.g. interactive terminal windows) or backends which are
basically always used for interactive sessions so it's unlikely that
an application would be depending on independent EOF (telnet, rlogin).
EOF should now never accidentally be sent while there's still buffered
data to go out before it. (May help fix 'portfwd-corrupt', and also I
noticed recently that the ssh main session channel can accidentally
have MSG_EOF sent before the output bufchain is clear, leading to
embarrassment when it subsequently does send the output).

(In an embarrassingly silly way, too. No end of difficult stuff about
Conf serialisation done with great care and working just fine, and
then a trivial goof in using sscanf lets the whole lot down.)
[originally from svn r9237]
'Config' in putty.h, which stores all PuTTY's settings and includes an
arbitrary length limit on every single one of those settings which is
stored in string form. In place of it is 'Conf', an opaque data type
everywhere outside the new file conf.c, which stores a list of (key,
value) pairs in which every key contains an integer identifying a
configuration setting, and for some of those integers the key also
contains extra parts (so that, for instance, CONF_environmt is a
string-to-string mapping). Everywhere that a Config was previously
used, a Conf is now; everywhere there was a Config structure copy,
conf_copy() is called; every lookup, adjustment, load and save
operation on a Config has been rewritten; and there's a mechanism for
serialising a Conf into a binary blob and back for use with Duplicate
Session.
User-visible effects of this change _should_ be minimal, though I
don't doubt I've introduced one or two bugs here and there which will
eventually be found. The _intended_ visible effects of this change are
that all arbitrary limits on configuration strings and lists (e.g.
limit on number of port forwardings) should now disappear; that list
boxes in the configuration will now be displayed in a sorted order
rather than the arbitrary order in which they were added to the list
(since the underlying data structure is now a sorted tree234 rather
than an ad-hoc comma-separated string); and one more specific change,
which is that local and dynamic port forwardings on the same port
number are now mutually exclusive in the configuration (putting 'D' in
the key rather than the value was a mistake in the first place).
One other reorganisation as a result of this is that I've moved all
the dialog.c standard handlers (dlg_stdeditbox_handler and friends)
out into config.c, because I can't really justify calling them generic
any more. When they took a pointer to an arbitrary structure type and
the offset of a field within that structure, they were independent of
whether that structure was a Config or something completely different,
but now they really do expect to talk to a Conf, which can _only_ be
used for PuTTY configuration, so I've renamed them all things like
conf_editbox_handler and moved them out of the nominally independent
dialog-box management module into the PuTTY-specific config.c.

rectangle into smaller ones: it doesn't work any more, since the new
variable-pitch code can now call general_textout() with a larger
clipping rectangle than the text it's meant to be displaying. Instead,
general_textout() now uses the same semantics as the next loop up in
do_text_internal(): the first piece of text it displays uses the
opacity setting passed in, which blanks the entire clipping rectangle
if necessary, and then subsequent overlays are non-opaque. And the
same clipping rectangle is used throughout.

- move it inside the new big loop (this should fix a potential bug
whereby the DBCS handling altered some elements of it but the loop
did not actually step along it)
- initialise it more sensibly
- rename it to lpDx rather than IpDx, since as far as I can tell the
latter name was derived from a misreading of the former in the
Windows API docs.
[originally from svn r9066]

Instead we null it out in the calls to subroutines _from_

Done in much the same way as it is in the GTK front end: the character
cell width is determined using the font's digits (which seems to give
generally not-too-offensive spacing in most cases, at the expense of
Ms and Ws typically overhanging a bit into adjacent cells) and each
character is centred in its cell. Overhangs never leave permanent
droppings on the window, because the existing work done in r5003
handles them just fine even in this stressful scenario.
There's a hacky new checkbox in the Appearance panel to make
variable-pitch fonts appear in the font selector (they still don't by
default, because I still think it's _usually_ not What You Want); the
checkbox state is not actually stored as part of a saved session, but
it should be automatically ticked when reloading a session that's got
a variable pitch font selected.
(I'm half-expecting a potential flurry of requests for this feature in
the wake of http://xkcd.com/840/ , so I thought I'd pre-empt them :-)

I'm not sure whether I broke this in the recent revamp or whether it
was always broken, but: transitions in and out of full-screen mode
work by first maximising or restoring the window, which triggers a
WM_SIZE, whose handler then fiddles with the window style to disable
or re-enable all the furniture, which in turn triggers a recursive
WM_SIZE. The trouble is, after returning from the handler for the
inner WM_SIZE, the rest of the outer handler runs, and its client area
size is now out of date.
So I've added a flag which is set when a resize is handled 'properly',
so that after returning from the inner WM_SIZE handler the outer one
knows not to try to redo badly work that's already been done well.

jump list is updated every time a saved session is loaded, and shows
the last few launchable saved sessions (i.e. not those like Default

links to launch those too.

centre the terminal in cases where the window is non-negotiably the

terminal resize.
[originally from svn r9044]
restoring a maximised window.
Failure to do this was noticeable in the following scenario (again
using Aero UI enhancements):
1. resize window using topmost resize handle, and move pointer to top
of screen which 'maximises' the window vertically
2. now maximise the window properly using the maximise button in top
right
3. now restore. Notepad restores to its position before step 1,
because Aero remembers that position for the purpose, but PuTTY
thinks it knows better. Only now it doesn't any more.
[originally from svn r9041]
Firstly, maximise and restore events were expected never to occur
during an interactive resize process (i.e. between WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE
and WM_EXITSIZEMOVE), but in fact Aero now allows this to happen if
you move the pointer to the top of the screen while dragging the
window.
Secondly, plain old WM_SIZE events were expected never to occur
_outside_ interactive resizes, but Aero permits that too (e.g.
Windows-left and Windows-right), and also third-party window
repositioning tools will send these.

case of double-width text (ESC # 3, ESC # 4, ESC # 6), because the
string passed to it was not truncated to the same width as the
clipping rectangle. (In fact, it _can't_ reliably be, in the case
where the window width is odd.) So instead we just assert that we
managed to _at least_ fill the clipping rectangle, not that we
exactly filled it.
The problem is easily reproduced by sending ESC # 8 (fill the screen
with Es) followed by ESC # 3. It doesn't typically happen, though,
if you _manually_ fill the screen with Es, because in that case
PuTTY's terminal buffer ends up being filled with CSET_ACP | 'E' or
similar, which means that general_textout() never gets called
because one of the other branches of do_text_internal() does the
work instead. ESC # 8 will fill the terminal buffer with genuine
_Unicode_ 'E' characters, which exercises the failing code path.

have really meant it. This means:
- starting up PuTTY when the Default Settings are launchable still
brings up the config box, and you have to hit Open to actually
launch that session
- double-clicking on Default Settings from the config box will load
them but not launch them.
On the other hand:
- explicitly loading the Default Settings on the command line using
`-load' _does_ still launch them.

and various calls to WinHelp() have been centralised into a new file
winhelp.c, which in turn has been modified to detect a .CHM file as
well as .HLP and select between them as appropriate. It explicitly
tries to load HHCTRL.OCX and use GetProcAddress, meaning that it
_should_ still work correctly on pre-HTML-Help platforms, falling
gracefully back to WinHelp, but although I tested this by
temporarily renaming my own HHCTRL.OCX I haven't yet been able to
test it on a real HTML-Help-free platform.
Also in this checkin: a new .but file and docs makefile changes to

easily manage, by adopting a hybrid approach to Unicode text
display. The old approach of simply calling ExtTextOutW provided
font linking without us having to lift a finger, but didn't do the
right thing when it came to bidirectional or Arabic-shaped text.
Arabeyes' replacement exact_textout() supported the latter, but
turned out to break the former (with no warning from the Windows API
documentation, so it's not their fault).
So now I've got a second wrapper layer called general_textout(),
which splits the input string into substrings based on bidi
character class. Any character liable to cause bidi or shaping
behaviour if fed straight to ExtTextOutW is instead fed through
Arabeyes' exact_textout(), but the rest is fed straight to
ExtTextOutW as it used to be.
The effect appears to be that font linking is restored for all
characters _except_ Arabic and other bidi scripts, which means in
particular that we are no longer in a state of regression over 0.57.
(0.57 would have done font linking on Arabic as well, but would also
have misbidied it, so we've merely exchanged one failure mode for
another slightly less harmful one in that situation.)

in place of making a network connection. This has involved a couple
of minor infrastructure changes:
- New dlg_label_change() function in the dialog.h interface, which
alters the label on a control. Only used, at present, to switch
the Host Name and Port boxes into Serial Line and Speed, which
means that any platform not implementing serial connections (i.e.
currently all but Windows) does not need to actually do anything
in this function. Yet.
- New small piece of infrastructure: cfg_launchable() determines
whether a Config structure describes a session ready to be
launched. This was previously determined by seeing if it had a
non-empty host name, but it has to check the serial line as well
so there's a centralised function for it. I haven't gone through
all front ends and arranged for this function to be used
everywhere it needs to be; so far I've only checked Windows.
- Similarly, cfg_dest() returns the destination of a connection
(host name or serial line) in a text format suitable for putting
into messages such as `Unable to connect to %s'.

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

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
