Previously, SshProxy dealt with creating a TempSeat to wrap the one it was borrowing from its client, and then each client in turn dealt with detecting when it had had its seat borrowed and finishing up with the TempSeat. The latter involved a lot of code duplication; the former didn't involve code duplication _yet_ (since SshProxy was the only thing doing this job), but would have once we started wanting to do interactive password prompting for other types of network proxy. Now all of that functionality is centralised into two new Interactor helper functions: interactor_borrow_seat and interactor_return_seat.
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.
