Information about PuTTY for the Mac OS
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Known bugs:

 * PowerPC and fat versions fail to start on systems without AppearanceLib (ie
   most System 7 ones).  The 68k version works fine. [MAYBE FIXED]
 * If the screen scrolls more than once between calls to WaitNextEvent, Bad
   Things can happen owing to a bug in do_scroll.  This can be fixed when I
   have an easy way to test it.
 * Display is far too slow.
 * Fails to work on systems without Color QuickDraw. [FIXED]
 * Real bold doesn't compensate for changing character widths without Color
   QuickDraw. [MAYBE FIXED]
 * Scrolling appears to be shafted on Original QuickDraw.
 * ResEdit 'TMPL' resource seems to be broken.
 * sshsha.c and sshmd5.c cause a stack overflow in Apple's PowerPC C compiler 
   unless optimisation is entirely disabled.

Features we need (and aren't entirely obvious):

 * Scroll-conflation -- scroll_display should change the in-memory display and
   remember the scroll, then do_scroll should be called only when
   scroll_display gets called for a different rectangle or term_paint happens.
