29605a0719 Tweak to make it more obvious that the System menu is only available from
the _terminal_ window -- should be obvious from context but the nearest
context is some distance away.

67f5853cd2 Text around -load option "(although Plink still requires an explicitly
specified host name)" didn't appear to actually be true any more (see
`cmdline-host-override'). Removed

412b9ff447 tweak text about mouse reporting and copy and paste to indicate that shift's
only necessary for mouse-based actions (since we seem to be growing more
copy-and-paste options)

352ec6a486 `portfwd-loopback-choice' was not consistently documented.
- update usage info in tools
   - ack, plink is over 24 lines now
 - update man pages for Unix version
 - Doc changes:
   - move long description from (GUI) "config" to "using"
     - sorry if complete specification isn't what this section is meant for,
       but if you only read "using" it was hard to find.
   - ensure enough references to this made in other sections (GUI,
     command-line)
   - update instance of plink usage info

3f83c3b140 ... of course, it would help if I remembered to _document_ dynamic
port forwarding. Ahem.

57610f8580 Steven Shockley points out that the .PPK extension is far from obvious to
users. Update the file selection dialogs to mention it per the usual Windows
convention, and also sprinkle references to it throughout the docs. I've
also scattered hints that most tools need PuTTY's native format; perhaps this
will reduce the frequency with which FAQ A.1.2 trips people up.

99b870dbc6 Implement `portfwd-loopback-choice'. Works on local side in Unix as
well, though it's a lot less useful since you still can't bind to
low-numbered ports of odd loopback IPs. Should work in principle for
SSH2 remote forwardings as well as local ones, but OpenSSH seems
unwilling to cooperate.

c7fa2f6183 Updated usage messages for command-line utilities to reflect new options.
Updated manual to reflect reality (e.g. usage messages, '-p port' not actually
  implemented, sprinkle references to '-i keyfile').
(I've put "Release 0.53" in the messages; let's hope this doesn't cause a
  flood of "where is 0.53?" email.)
I don't guarantee that the result is entirely sane and sensible in all
  respects, but it is at least consistent.

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).

fc2a4f845d Documentation: filled the last few gaps and cleaned a few things up.
PuTTY now has a complete manual. Stylistic review, content review
and indexing are yet to do, but at least there's some plausible text
in every section now.

7e0ef0b253 Further documentation work. Tidy up the Config chapter (add a few
new features - the code had got ahead of the docs), and propagate a
couple of cross-references to other files as a result.

fe943dcd68 Add a new chapter full of intermediate-useful-things, somewhere
between `Getting Started' (things we can barely believe you don't
know) and the Configuration reference chapter (things you already
knew and had just forgotten). Only half-written at the moment.
