Simon Tatham 34f747421d Support for Windows PuTTY connecting straight to a local serial port
in place of making a network connection. This has involved a couple
of minor infrastructure changes:
 - New dlg_label_change() function in the dialog.h interface, which
   alters the label on a control. Only used, at present, to switch
   the Host Name and Port boxes into Serial Line and Speed, which
   means that any platform not implementing serial connections (i.e.
   currently all but Windows) does not need to actually do anything
   in this function. Yet.
 - New small piece of infrastructure: cfg_launchable() determines
   whether a Config structure describes a session ready to be
   launched. This was previously determined by seeing if it had a
   non-empty host name, but it has to check the serial line as well
   so there's a centralised function for it. I haven't gone through
   all front ends and arranged for this function to be used
   everywhere it needs to be; so far I've only checked Windows.
 - Similarly, cfg_dest() returns the destination of a connection
   (host name or serial line) in a text format suitable for putting
   into messages such as `Unable to connect to %s'.

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'.
