This is already slightly nice because it lets me separate the Weierstrass and Montgomery code more completely, without having to have a vtable tucked into dh->extra. But more to the point, it will allow completely different kex methods to fit into the same framework later. To that end, I've moved more of the descriptive message generation into the vtable, and also provided the constructor with a flag that will let it do different things in client and server. Also, following on from a previous commit, I've arranged that the new API returns arbitrary binary data for the exchange hash, rather than an mp_int. An upcoming implementation of this interface will want to return an encoded string instead of an encoded mp_int.
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.
