which text pasted into the terminal is preceded and followed by
special function-key-like escape sequences ESC[200~ and ESC[201~ so
that the application can identify it and treat it specially (e.g.
disabling auto-indent-same-as-previous-line in text editors). Enabled
and disabled by ESC[?2004h and ESC[?2004l, and of course off by
default.

UTF-16 support. High Unicode characters in the terminal are now
converted back into surrogates during copy and draw operations, and
the Windows drawing code takes account of that when splitting up the
UTF-16 string for display. Meanwhile, accidental uses of wchar_t have
been replaced with 32-bit integers in parts of the cross-platform code
which were expecting not to have to deal with UTF-16.

(o,p,r,s). They are displayed in Windows by actually writing the
centred one (q) with a vertical offset, in case fonts don't have the
offset versions; this requires terminal.c to separate those characters
into distinct calls to do_text(). Unfortunately, it was only breaking
up a text-drawing call _before_ one of those characters, not after
one. Spotted by Robert de Bath.

'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.

today reported an SSH2_MSG_UNIMPLEMENTED from a Cisco router which
looks as if it was triggered by SSH2_MSG_IGNORE, so I'm
experimentally putting this flag in. Currently must be manually
enabled, though if it turns out to solve the user's problem then
I'll probably add at least one version string...

code in all our front ends with calls to that.
This was intended for code cleanliness, but a side effect is to make
the GTK arrow-key handling support disabling of application cursor
key mode in the Features panel. Previously that checkbox was
accidentally ignored, and nobody seems to have noticed before!

UTF-16 when exchanging wchar_t strings with the front end. Enabled
by a #define in the platform's header file (one should not
promiscuously translate UTF-16 surrogate pairs on 32-bit wchar_t
platforms since that could give rise to redundant encoding attacks),
which is present on Windows.

systems where char is signed. Sprinkle some appropriate casts to prevent
this.

has width and height swapped. Since both a random xterm I have and
<http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.txt> agree with him, I've
changed ours. (This stuff appears to originate in dtterm, but I can't check the
behaviour of that right now.)
While I'm here, the are-we-iconified report (CSI 11 t) looks to have the
wrong sense compared to the same sources, so swap that too.
(All this has been this way since it was originally implemented in r1414,
which doesn't cite a source. all-escapes is silent too.)

The scenario: I start a small, say 80x24, pterm. I do some work in
it, generating plenty of scrollback, and eventually I `less' a file.
`less' switches to the alt screen. Then I want more vertical space
to look at the file, so I enlarge the window to more like 80x60.
When I quit `less' and switch back to the primary screen, some
scrollback has been pulled down into the screen, as expected - but
the saved _cursor position_ is still at line 24, not at the bottom
of the new terminal where the prompt it goes with has moved to.
Solution: term_size() should adjust the alt-screen saved cursor
positions as well as the normal cursor position.
(Curiously, the problem doesn't happen on my home Debian box, even
without this fix. It happens on my RH9 box at work, though.)

We now have an option where a remote window title query returns a well-formed
response containing the empty string. This should keep stop any server-side
application that was expecting a response from hanging, while not permitting
the response to be influenced by an attacker.
We also retain the ability to stay schtum. The existing checkbox has thus
grown into a set of radio buttons.
I've changed the default to the "empty string" response, even in the backward-
compatibility mode of loading old settings, which is a change in behaviour;
any users who want the old behaviour back will have to explicitly select it. I
think this is probably the Right Thing. (The only drawback I can think of is
that an attacker could still potentially use the relevant fixed strings for
mischief, but we already have other, similar reports.)

I've been having with the cursor sometimes restoring to the wrong
place when screen(1) terminates. The offending sequence of escape
sequences goes ESC 7 (save cursor), ESC [?47h (switch to alternate
screen), ESC 7 (save cursor _again_), do some stuff, ESC 8 (restore
cursor), run screen session for a bit, ESC [?47l (return to main
screen), ESC 8 (restore cursor). The final ESC 8 is expected to
restore the cursor to where it was saved by the initial ESC 7.
Translation: the ESC 7 saved cursor state is part of the state we
must swap out when switching to the alternate screen. In other
words, we need to track _four_ cursor positions: active and saved,
on each of main and alternate screen. Previously we were tracking
only three.

A growable buffer was only being grown for actual text, not for newlines or
trailing NULs. A large run of empty lines could lead to newlines overflowing
the buffer (> 100 should be enough to guarantee this on all platforms, after
the initial 5k size of the buffer).
Also fix some valgrind in the same area (was probably harmless), and a memory

implementation of the printing interface, an additional function in

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.)

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).
