Previously, it would generate a prime candidate, test it, and abort if that candidate failed to be prime. Now, it's even willing to fail _before_ generating a prime candidate, if the first attempt to even do that is unsuccessful. This doesn't affect the existing use case of pcs_set_oneshot, which is during generation of a safe prime (as implemented by test/primegen.py --safe), where you want to make a PrimeCandidateSource that can only return 2p+1 for your existing prime p, and then abort if that fails the next step of testing. In that situation, the PrimeCandidateSource will never fail to generate its first output anyway. But these changed semantics will become useful in another use I'm about to find for one-shot mode.
This is the README for PuTTY, a free Windows and Unix Telnet and SSH
client.
PuTTY is built using CMake <https://cmake.org/>. To compile in the
simplest way (on any of Linux, Windows or Mac), run these commands in
the source directory:
cmake .
cmake --build .
Documentation (in various formats including Windows Help and Unix
`man' pages) is built from the Halibut (`.but') files in the `doc'
subdirectory using `doc/Makefile'. If you aren't using one of our
source snapshots, you'll need to do this yourself. Halibut can be
found at <https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/halibut/>.
The PuTTY home web site is

If you want to send bug reports or feature requests, please read the
Feedback section of the web site before doing so. Sending one-line
reports saying `it doesn't work' will waste your time as much as
ours.
