completely broke interactive logins. The problem, or at least one of the
problems, was that in interactive use stdin, stdout, and stderr tend to be
the same file, so setting O_NONBLOCK on the latter two also sets it on the
former. Thus, we need to cope with all of them being non-blocking.

Arguably, this shouldn't apply to stderr when we're printing our own error
messages to it, but I'll leave that fix for another time.

there): `plink host -nc host2:port' causes the SSH connection's main
channel to be replaced with a direct-tcpip connection to the
specified destination. This feature is mainly designed for use as a
local proxy: setting your local proxy command to `plink %proxyhost
-nc %host:%port' lets you tunnel SSH over SSH with a minimum of
fuss. Works on all platforms.

I own has both an X display and a working serial port) I have been
unable to give this the full testing it deserves; I've managed to
demonstrate the basic functionality of Unix Plink talking to a
serial port, but I haven't been able to test the GTK front end. I
have no reason to think it will fail, but I'll be more comfortable
once somebody has actually tested it.

it's NULL. Since we already have one back end (uxpty) which doesn't
in fact talk to a network socket, and may well have more soon, I'm
replacing this TCP/IP-centric function with a nice neutral
`connected' function returning a boolean. Nothing else about its
semantics has currently changed.

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

in question vary per OS: on Windows the problem is that WM_TIMER
sometimes goes off too early, so that GetTickCount() is right and
the callback time is wrong, whereas on Unix the problem is that my
GETTICKCOUNT implementation comes from the system clock which means
it can change suddenly and non-monotonically if the sysadmin is
messing about (meaning that the timing of callbacks from GTK or
select timeouts is _more_ likely to be right than GETTICKCOUNT).
This checkin provides band-aid workarounds for both problems, which
aren't pretty but ought to at least prevent catastrophic assertion
failure.

* All the PuTTY tools for Windows and Unix now contain the fingerprints of
the Master Keys. The method for accessing them is crude but universal:
a new "-pgpfp" command-line option. (Except Unix PuTTYgen, which takes
"--pgpfp" just to be awkward.)
* Move the key policy discussion from putty-website/keys.html to
putty/doc/pgpkeys.but, and autogenerate the former from the latter.
Also tweak the text somewhat and include the fingerprints of the
Master Keys themselves.
(I've merged the existing autogeneration scripts into a single new
one; I've left the old scripts and keys.html around until such time
as the webmonster reviews the changes and plumbs in the new script;
he should remove the old files then.)

of polishing to bring them to what I think should in principle be
release quality. Unlike the unfix.org patches themselves, this
checkin enables IPv6 by default; if you want to leave it out, you
have to build with COMPAT=-DNO_IPV6.
I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

which pretty much any module can call to request a call-back in the
future. So terminal.c can do its own handling of blinking, visual
bells and deferred screen updates, without having to rely on
term_update() being called 50 times a second (fixes: pterm-timer);
and ssh.c and telnet.c both invoke a new module pinger.c which takes
care of sending keepalives, so they get sent uniformly in all front
ends (fixes: plink-keepalives, unix-keepalives).

- new function platform_get_x_display() to find a sensible local display.
On Unix, the Gtk apps weren't taking account of --display when
determining where to send forwarded X traffic.
- explicitly document that leaving X display location blank in config tries
to do something sensible (and that it's now blank by default)
- don't override X11Display setting in plink, since that's more properly
done later

before "-load" is processed so that it doesn't clobber it.
I've also changed the semantics of "-load" slightly for PSCP, PSFTP,
and Plink: if it's specified at all, it overrides (disables) the
implicit loading of session details based on a supplied hostname
elsewhere (on the grounds that the user is more likely to want the
"-load" session than the implicit session). (PuTTY itself doesn't do
implicit loading at all, so I haven't changed it.)
This means that all the PuTTY tools' behaviour is now consistent iff
"-load" is specified (otherwise, some tools have implicit-session, and
others don't).
However, I've not documented this behaviour, as there's a good chance
it will be swept away if and when we get round to sorting out how we
deal with settings from multiple sources. It's intended as a "do
something sensible" change.

No very good reason, but I've occasionally wanted to frob it to see if it
makes any difference to problems I'm having, and it was easy.
Tested that it does actually cause keepalives on Windows (with tcpdump);
should also work on Unix. Not implemented on Mac (does nothing), but then
neither is TCP_NODELAY.
Quite a big checkin, much of which is adding `keepalive' alongside `nodelay'
in network function calls.

being able to be a PuTTY as well as a pterm. In the process I've
also moved icky things like actually reading from the pty fd and
printing the `terminated on signal' messages into pty.c where they
obviously should have been in the first place. Also there's been one
interesting repercussion in the terminal code: terminal.c's
from_backend now calls term_out() directly rather than expecting the
front end to call it afterwards. This has had the entertaining side
effect of fixing a Windows-specific bug whereby activity in a port
forwarding through a PuTTY with a blinking cursor caused the cursor
to blink to ON (!!!!). So, a surprisingly far-reaching checkin as it
turns out...
[originally from svn r3017]
functionality that deal with selectable fds in general. The idea is
that pty.c will stop passing its fd straight to pterm.c and hand it
to this module instead, and pterm.c will start requesting a general
list of fds from this module rather than expecting a single one from
pty.c, with the ultimate aim of pterm.c being able to form the basis
of a Unix PuTTY as well as pterm proper.

malloc functions, which automatically cast to the same type they're
allocating the size of. Should prevent any future errors involving
mallocing the size of the wrong structure type, and will also make
life easier if we ever need to turn the PuTTY core code from real C
into C++-friendly C. I haven't touched the Mac frontend in this
checkin because I couldn't compile or test it.
