cursor and app keypad modes are now once again independently
switchable. The VT100 and VT102 manuals may have done it RDB's way
as he said, but xterm and rxvt disagree and at least one app depends
on the xterm way. It'll have to become a configurable option if
anyone has trouble with this.

sick of recompiling to enable packet dumps. SSH packet dumping is
now provided as a logging option, and dumps to putty.log like all
the other logging options. While I'm at it I cleaned up the format
so that packet types are translated into strings for easy browsing.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECT: in the course of this work I had to re-enable
the SSH1 packet length checks which it turns out hadn't actually
been active for some time, so it's possible things might break as a
result. If need be I can always disable those checks for the 0.52
release and think about it more carefully later.

to report command failures is now gone; instead each sftp_cmd_*
routine returns 0 or 1 depending on success, like they should have
done right from the start. This fixes problems with `ls' prematurely
terminating PSFTP batch files.

command-line state but all commands are disallowed except `open
host.name'. The idea is to provide marginal extra niceness for
people who double-click the icon without realising it's a cmdline app.

individual documentation of the various PuTTYgen controls; also
implemented context help in PuTTYgen to go with it. Shame there
isn't space for a generic `Help' button in the PuTTYgen window.

configurable option so users can re-enable the feature _if_ they
know they have an SSH2 server that isn't going to get shirty about
it. Inspired by a spectacular increase in OpenSSH's shirtiness.

we just invoke the same help file and jump to the Pageant chapter.
It would be nice to be able to bring up the contents box with the
Pageant chapter expanded, but I don't think WinHelp() allows us to
request this.)

full-screen, then selected Change Settings and then changed the
resize behaviour, ranging from the window staying FS but acquiring
borders to the window restoring its previous size and _failing_ to
acquire borders. Should now all be fixed.

to add and keys to remove (in the open-file dialog and the key list
box respectively), and passphrases are cached during the process of
adding several keys at once (in case two of the keys have the same
passphrase).

(which I'll comment at some stage) should combine the believable
semantics of RDB's fullscreen-by-maximise mode with the multi-
monitor friendliness of Wez Furlong's approach while also working on
Win98. If we're lucky.

PuTTY now has a complete manual. Stylistic review, content review
and indexing are yet to do, but at least there's some plausible text
in every section now.

know) and the Configuration reference chapter (things you already
knew and had just forgotten). Only half-written at the moment.

than \e when describing button names and menu items: the "Foo"
button rather than the _Foo_ button. Certainly consistent use of
either is better than the mixed use of both we had before :-)

uses to manipulate the window (minimise, maximise, front, back,
move, resize) and report things about the window (is it minimised or
maximised, how big is it, what's its title). Missing are ESC[4;X;Yt
(resize to a specified pixel size; our resize code doesn't like it)
and ESC[19;X;Yt (report size of _screen_ in _characters_, which it
isn't even obvious how to do when you've got a variable font size).

now a passphrase-keyed MAC covering _all_ important data in the
file, including the public blob and the key comment. Should
conclusively scupper any attacks based on nobbling the key file in
an attempt to sucker the machine that decrypts it. MACing the
comment field also protects against a key-substitution attack (if
someone's worked out a way past our DSA protections and can extract
the private key from a signature, swapping key files and
substituting comments might just enable them to get the signature
they need to do this. Paranoid, but might as well).

isn't configured to do it: we now have a sysmenu option for it. In
addition, there's a special case such that clicking the top left
pixel on the screen in full-screen mode brings up the sysmenu (so
you can still get at the sysmenu in FS mode without Alt-anything
configured to bring it up and without ghastly fiddling with the
Windows key). Also Change Settings while in full-screen mode now
adds/removes the scrollbar in response to scrollbar_in_fullscreen
rather than scrollbar (oops).
