Ben Harris b838180aa0 Add support for building a CFM-68K version of PuTTY, which is rather smaller
than the Classic 68K version.  This requires installing more bits of the
Text Encoding Converter SDK, since Apple seem to have forgotten to put _any_
68k bits for it, either CFM or Classic, in Universal Interfaces.

Also don't bother linking against libraries we don't seem to need.

Information about PuTTY for the Mac OS
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Compiling it:
See ../README for generic information.
To compile PuTTY for Mac OS you will need:
MPW
<ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Tool_Chest/Core_Mac_OS_Tools/MPW_etc./
MPW-GM_Images/MPW-GM.img.bin>
Universal Headers (optional)
<ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/
UniversalHeaders3.4.2.img.bin>
Text Encoding Converter SDK
<ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/TEC_1.5.sit.hqx>
Install MPW, install the new Universal Headers (optional), then put
the contents of the "68K Static Libraries" directory of the Text
Encoding Converter SDK into "Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:Libraries",
and the contents of the "Stub Libraries" directory into
"Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:SharedLibraries".
The "mkputty.mpw" script does most of the work, but currently needs
you to run "Rez -append -o PuTTY.68k mac_res.r", and the same for
PuTTY.ppc to get the resources compiled in.
The current Makefile producess a Classic 68K build of PuTTY called
"PuTTY.68k", a CFM-68K build called "PuTTY.cfm68k", and a non-Carbon
PowerPC build called "PuTTY.ppc".
Runtime requirements:
PuTTY should run on any Macintosh running System 7.0 or later. The
Classic 68K build seems not to run under Mac OS X (even with
Classic.app).
Known bugs:
* PowerPC and fat versions fail to start on systems without AppearanceLib (ie
most System 7 ones). The 68k version works fine. [MAYBE FIXED]
* Display is far too slow.
* Real bold doesn't compensate for changing character widths without Color
QuickDraw. [MAYBE FIXED]
* sshsha.c and sshmd5.c cause a stack overflow in Apple's PowerPC C compiler
unless optimisation is entirely disabled.
Features we need (and aren't entirely obvious):
* Scroll-conflation -- scroll_display should change the in-memory
display and remember the scroll, then do_scroll should be called
only when scroll_display gets called for a different rectangle or
term_paint happens.
