it out. A line was removed from the scrollback, cleared, and placed
at the bottom of the screen. Fine, except that the clearing process
assumed the line was the right length already, and thanks to lazy
resizing this wasn't necessarily the case. Segfaults and memory
corruption ensued.)

possible and we have a single unified means of trying to display any
Unicode code point. Instead of the various ad-hoc translation modes
we had before, we now have a single `codepage' option which allows
us to treat the incoming (and outgoing) text as any given character
set, and locally we map that to Unicode and back.

requires fix_cpos() to be called after it (otherwise cpos might point
to a line that isn't where you remember it being), and a mis-aimed
incpos() was causing forward selection dragging not to include the
char under the mouse. Both fixed.

configurable bell overload handling. Thanks to Robert de Bath for
galvanising me into doing this, but I've had to rip most of his code
out and redo it myself...

now to translate them into poor man's characters (+--+ and |). We also
have an option to disable this (and map line drawing characters to the
corresponding ASCII code as before). Thanks to Robert de Bath.

multiple switchable line disciplines, we now have a single unified
one which changes its behaviour based on option settings. Each
option setting can be suggested by the back end and/or the terminal
handler, and can be forcibly overridden by the configuration. Local
echo and local line editing are separate, independently switchable,
options.

character if we were wrapping, not whether we _will_ wrap next
character. Makes for saner behaviour with vertical-line cursor and
also when changing autowrap mode while on rightmost column. Does
entail small behavioural changes to backspace and destructive-
backspace when in rightmost column with Auto Wrap off, but I don't
think they should be catastrophic, or indeed that there's a well
defined Right Behaviour.

advantages:
- protocol modules can call sk_write() without having to worry
about writes blocking, because blocking writes are handled in the
abstraction layer and retried later.
- `Lost connection while sending' is a thing of the past.
- <winsock.h> is no longer needed in most modules, because
"putty.h" doesn't have to declare `SOCKET' variables any more,
only the abstracted `Socket' type.
- select()-equivalent between multiple sockets will now be handled
sensibly, which opens the way for things like SSH port
forwarding.

- Robert de Bath's Compose key is now off by default and configurable on
- The ages-old controversy over whether ALT by itself should bring the
System menu up is now controllable by a config option
- You can now independently configure whether scrollback resets on a
keypress _and_ whether it resets on screen activity.

use when they have data from the network. Replaces the utterly daft
inbuf / inbuf_head / term_out() interface, which only made sense
when feeding to terminal.c. (terminal.c now implements
from_backend() as a small function that gateways to the old
interface.)
As a side effect, from_backend() also has an `is_stderr' parameter,
so scp can once again separate the server's pronouncements on stderr
from the actual protocol progress on stdout.

- cope with strange WinSock wrappers not supporting SIOCATMARK
- define yet more terminal compatibility modes
- support UK-ASCII (just like US-ASCII but # is a sterling sign)
- support connection keepalives at a configurable interval
