This is the pathfinding change that proves it's possible for _one_ Conf setting to become Unicode-capable. That seems like quite a small reward for all the refactoring in the previous patches this week! But changing over one configuration setting is enough to get started with: once all the bugs are out of this one, we can try switching over some more. Changing the type to CONF_TYPE_STR_AMBI is enough by itself to make the configuration dialog box write it into Conf as UTF-8, because conf_editbox_handler automatically checks whether that possibility is available. However, setting the same Conf entry from the command line isn't automatic: I had to add code in the handler for the -l command-line option in cmdline.c. This commit also doesn't yet handle the _other_ way to specify a username on the command line: including it as part of the hostname argument via "putty user@host" or similar. That's more difficult, because it also requires deciding what to do about UTF-8 in the actual hostname. (That looks as if it ought to be possible: Windows should be able to handle looking up Unicode hostnames if you use GetAddrInfoW() in place of getaddrinfo(). But plumbing it through everything in between cmdline.c and windows/network.c is a bigger job than I'm prepared to do in this proof-of-concept commit.) |

PuTTY source code README ======================== This is the README for the source code of 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), the general method is to run these commands in the source directory: cmake . cmake --build . These commands will expect to find a usable compile toolchain on your path. So if you're building on Windows with MSVC, you'll need to make sure that the MSVC compiler (cl.exe) is on your path, by running one of the 'vcvars32.bat' setup scripts provided with the tools. Then the cmake commands above should work. To install in the simplest way on Linux or Mac: cmake --build . --target install On Unix, pterm would like to be setuid or setgid, as appropriate, to permit it to write records of user logins to /var/run/utmp and /var/log/wtmp. (Of course it will not use this privilege for anything else, and in particular it will drop all privileges before starting up complex subsystems like GTK.) The cmake install step doesn't attempt to add these privileges, so if you want user login recording to work, you should manually ch{own,grp} and chmod the pterm binary yourself after installation. If you don't do this, pterm will still work, but not update the user login databases. Documentation (in various formats including Windows Help and Unix `man' pages) is built from the Halibut (`.but') files in the `doc' subdirectory. 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 https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ 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. See the file LICENCE for the licence conditions.
