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size is now out of date.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.

icon, even if the program isn't running at the time, to be presented
with an application-defined collection of helpful links). The current
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
Settings) that were loaded. Also, if Pageant or PuTTYgen or both is in
the same directory as the PuTTY binary, the jump list will present
links to launch those too.

maximised state, we must be sure to disable the window offset used to
centre the terminal in cases where the window is non-negotiably the
wrong size (e.g. maximised). Hence we must call reset_window after our
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.

- starting up PuTTY when the Default Settings are launchable still

- 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

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

limitations of Halibut's CHM support, I'm not able to write a .CHM

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'.

There is no direct functionality enhancement from this checkin:
winplink.c now talks to the new API instead of doing it all

However, this should lay the groundwork for several diverse pieces

back end, and (hopefully) a pipe-based means of communicating with
Pageant, which should have sensible blocking behaviour and hence
permit asynchronous agent requests and decrypt-on-demand.

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

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
