being able to be a PuTTY as well as a pterm. In the process I've also moved icky things like actually reading from the pty fd and printing the `terminated on signal' messages into pty.c where they obviously should have been in the first place. Also there's been one interesting repercussion in the terminal code: terminal.c's from_backend now calls term_out() directly rather than expecting the front end to call it afterwards. This has had the entertaining side effect of fixing a Windows-specific bug whereby activity in a port forwarding through a PuTTY with a blinking cursor caused the cursor to blink to ON (!!!!). So, a surprisingly far-reaching checkin as it turns out... [originally from svn r3017]
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 to be 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 http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ 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'.
