apart from the debatable semantic sanity of abandoning mid-paste,
this was breaking Shift-paste (theoretically valid in any case,
actually necessary with xterm mouse reporting enabled) because when
you hold down Shift the window receives a steady stream of KEYDOWN
messages as the key auto-repeats. One of those is likely to show up
in mid-paste and scupper you. For the moment, this has been changed
so that only a key press that actually _generates session data_
aborts a paste. In future I plan to review just why we're doing this
anyway (it may be that paste-little-by-little was a response to
rubbish socket buffering, in which case we can dispense with it
completely now).

term_out() can in turn call ldisc_send() which calls back to
from_backend() when local echo is enabled. This was giving rise to
crazy re-entrancy stuff and stack overflows. Instead from_backend()
deposits its data in a bufchain which term_out() empties the next
time it's called.

kicked out by the Unicode patch. It's not very good - only works
sanely on US keyboards - but it's no worse than it was in 0.51.
After 0.52 maybe I should fix it properly.

numerous, it still only said _I_ would not be liable rather than
_everybody_ not being liable; also the resource file versions
weren't up to date.)

fiddle with the widths of characters in DBCS screen fonts, and (the
big one) one to enable a mode in which resizing the window locks the
terminal size and lets the font change, instead of vice versa. That
should shut up a few feature requests!

prevent gcc warning about scope-confined-to-parameter-list.

`put', it makes more sense to pick the _basename_ of the source
rather than use the whole path - particularly when the latter might
cause us to try to use a DOS pathname like `f:\stuff' in a Unix (or
worse, such as VMS!) file system.

Partly because that's a good idea _anyway_, and partly because it
seems to be causing trouble. (Specifically, their pathetic attempt
to emulate plink's proper select handling seems to get confused when
the back end tries to open a local listening socket.)

don't like the thought of having to try to fix it either,
particularly when I can't tell whether it'll work or not without
reproducing the (probably phantom) problem. Gah. I wish WinSock
would give better documentation of possible error returns.

compute (100*a)/b. Instead compute 100*(a/b), because that way
there's no chance that 100*a will become inexact enough to fail to
yield 100 when a==b.)

but I trust that RDB knows what he's talking about with Unicode.

characters that failed the UTF-8 canonicality rules were being sent
to the session log twice. Sounds trivial, but I bet it'd have
confused anyone who turned on session logging precisely to track
down a canonicality bug :-)

Alt-Space, Alt-only and the System menu. It lets Windows do more of
the work, and also saves a static variable, so it must be good :-)

mouse tracking is enabled. (This can be turned off if your app
really wants Shift+mouse, but it defaults to on for general
usefulness.)
