In the course of polishing up this dialog box, I'm going to want it to
actually do cryptographic things (such as checking validity of a
public key blob and printing its fingerprint), which means it will
need to link against SSH utility functions.
So I've moved the dialog-box setup and handling code out of config.c
into a new file in the ssh subdirectory and in the ssh library, where
those facilities will be conveniently available.
This also means that dialog-box setup code _won't_ be linked into
PuTTYtel or pterm (on either platform), so I've added a stub source
file to provide its entry-point function in those tools. Also,
provided a const bool to indicate whether that dialog is available,
which we use to decide whether to recognise that command-line option.
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.
