Simon Tatham 1b3eb3e20d Markus Kuhn's UTF-8 page
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html#activate
feels strongly that it should be easy to make _all_ your
applications work in UTF-8 mode, without having to remember a switch
for each one. Every application should simply note a UTF-8 locale
setting and switch into UTF-8 mode automatically.

Therefore, for the Unix port only, there's now a checkbox, enabled
by default, which causes the drop-down Translation box to be
overridden if the locale indicates UTF-8. Anyone who doesn't like
this, or doesn't like MGK, is welcome to turn it straight back off.

I'm not _completely_ convinced by MGK's argument myself; for
xterm/pterm to do _useful_ UTF-8 you also need to specify a decently
Unicode-capable font, and there's no way _that_ can be automagically
done on noticing a locale setting. But it's a de facto standard
(i.e. xterm does it :-) so I might as well at least be _able_ to
support it.

PuTTY README
============

This is the README file for the PuTTY installer distribution. If
you're reading this, you've probably just run our installer and
installed PuTTY on your system.

What should I do next?
----------------------

If you want to use PuTTY to connect to other computers, or use PSFTP
to transfer files, you should just be able to run them from the
Start menu.

If you want to use the command-line-only file transfer utility PSCP,
you will probably want to put the PuTTY installation directory on
your PATH. How you do this depends on your version of Windows. On
Windows NT and 2000, you can set it using Control Panel > System; on
Windows 95 you will need to edit AUTOEXEC.BAT. Consult your Windows
manuals for details.

What do I do if it doesn't work?
--------------------------------

The PuTTY home web site is

Here you will find our list of known bugs and pending feature
requests. If your problem is not listed in there, or in the FAQ, or
in the manuals, read the Feedback page to find out how to report
bugs to us. PLEASE read the Feedback page carefully: it is there to
save you time as well as us. Do not send us one-line bug reports
telling us `it doesn't work'.
