All the name strings in ssh_cipher, ssh_mac, ssh_hash, ssh_signkey point to compile-time string literals, hence should obviously be const char *. Most of these const-correctness patches are just a mechanical job of adding a 'const' in the one place you need it right now, and then chasing the implications through the code adding further consts until it compiles. But this one has actually shown up a bug: the 'algorithm' output parameter in ssh2_userkey_loadpub was sometimes returning a pointer to a string literal, and sometimes a pointer to dynamically allocated memory, so callers were forced to either sometimes leak memory or sometimes free a bad thing. Now it's consistently dynamically allocated, and should be freed everywhere too. |

This directory contains a Mac OS X port of PuTTY/pterm, running as a native Aqua GUI application. THIS PORT IS CURRENTLY UNFINISHED AND EXPERIMENTAL. It is _not_ considered to be of release quality, even if you've found it (and are reading this) in a PuTTY release source archive. You are welcome to try using it, but don't be surprised at unexpected behaviour. I'm not kidding. In particular, I have not yet decided where OS X PuTTY should store its configuration data. Options include storing it in ~/.putty to be compatible with Unix PuTTY, storing it wherever is compatible with Mac Classic PuTTY, storing it in a natively OS X location, or sorting out the `config-locations' wishlist item and doing all three. Therefore, if you start using this port and create a whole load of saved sessions, you should not be surprised if a future version of the port decides to look somewhere completely different for the data and therefore loses them all. If that happens, don't say you weren't warned! Other ways in which the port is currently unfinished include: Bit rot ------- - the conversion of the old fixed-size 'Config' structure to the new dynamic 'Conf' was never applied to this directory - probably other things are out of date too; it would need some work to make it compile again Missing terminal window features -------------------------------- - terminal display is horribly slow - fonts aren't configurable - several features are unimplemented in the terminal display: underlining, non-solid-block cursors, double-width and double-height line attributes, bold as font rather than as colour, wide (CJK) characters, combining characters. - there's no scrollbar - terminal window resizing isn't implemented yet - proper window placement (cascading down and right from the starting position, plus remembering previous window positions per the Apple HIG) is not implemented Missing alert box features -------------------------- - warn-on-close isn't implemented Missing input features ---------------------- - use of Alt+numberpad to enter arbitrary numeric character codes is not yet supported - there's no Meta key yet. (I'd like to at least have the possibility of using Command rather than Option as the Meta key, since the latter is necessary to send some characters, including the rather important # on Apple UK keyboards; but trapping Command-<key> and sending it to the window rather than the application menu requires me to make a positive effort of some sort and I haven't got round to it yet. For those Mac users who consider their Command key sacrosanct, don't worry, this option _will_ be configurable and _will_ be off by default.) - there's no specials menu - mouse activity isn't supported (neither cut-and-paste nor xterm mouse tracking) Missing terminal emulation features ----------------------------------- - currently no support for server-side window management requests (i.e. escape sequences to minimise or maximise the window, request or change its position and size, change its title etc) - window title is currently fixed Other missing features ---------------------- - no Event Log - no mid-session Change Settings
