While testing the unrelated pile of commits just past, I accidentally
started a Cygwin saved session I hadn't run in ages which used the old
Telnet-based cygtermd as a local proxy command, and found that it
presented the Cygwin prompt with a trust sigil. Oops!
It turns out that this is because interactor_return_seat does two
things that can change the real seat's trust status, and it does them
in the wrong order: it defaults the status back to trusted (as if the
seat was brand new, because that's how they start out), and it calls
tempseat_flush which may have buffered a trust-status reset while the
seat was borrowed. The former should not override the latter!
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.
