| 08:44 | NULL needs to be cast to void * when passed to a variadic function like execl(). Spotted by Damien Miller. check-in: eb7b985525 user: ben tags: trunk | |

| 07:25 | #ifdef out expensive combining-character/scrollback diagnostics (for now). check-in: e1292dcaea user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 02:46 | sk_address_is_local() was ignoring the possibility that a SockAddr might have an IPv4 address in `ai' rather than in `addresses'. Thanks to Martin Prikryl for pointing this out. check-in: 904f28216b user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 12:52 | Add text to the troubleshooting chapter about the errors that can be caused when an active connection times out due to outgoing data exceeding its maximum number of retries, and mention that this can occur even when you didn't think you'd sent anything due to rekeys and/or keepalives. Unix generates ETIMEDOUT in this situation. Windows, it turns out after doing an actual experiment by disabling my firewall, generates ECONNABORTED! So _that's_ what it means under Windows. I wish I'd done this experiment years ago now. check-in: 045dd26b66 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 07:45 | FAQ entry on rekeys: Jacob would like to pre-emptively try to avoid the possibility of people falling back to SSH-1 just because it gets rid of the irritating delays. check-in: 13f6a8ffb8 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 06:25 | Beef up the `unfinished and experimental' warnings for the two Mac ports, mentioning in particular that even if you downloaded a _release_ source archive these particular ports are not considered to be of release quality. check-in: 654cd509e1 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 13:33 | Further fix for lcc-win32. The PuTTY suite now compiles fine for me using lcc-win32 v3.8 (compilation date Mar 2 2005 18:40:17) provided I pass COMPAT="-DNO_IPV6 -DNO_MULTIMON" on the command line. check-in: 77e295b6c2 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 04:20 | faq-timeout: update for XP check-in: 17dff8e65f user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 02:27 | <1112163342.018492.101240@f14g2000cwb.googlegroups.com> on comp.security.ssh contains a Dr Watson log which looks to me as if `unclean-close-crash' occurred due to a rekey timer going off after the session had closed. Hence, ssh2_timer() now avoids doing anything if the session is already closed, and also ssh_do_close() proactively calls expire_timer_context(). Between those I think they ought to solve the problem. check-in: a38745f290 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 08:24 | Small markup fixes I just noticed, mostly use of literal double quotes where \q{} would be better. check-in: 4fd797a1e1 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 07:10 | After we receive EOF on stdin, we should clear ssh->send_ok so that we stop trying to read anything further from stdin. Otherwise we send a continuous stream of SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_EOF. check-in: b8c79bfc5c user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 11:48 | Render timing.c robust in the face of strangeness. The strangenesses in question vary per OS: on Windows the problem is that WM_TIMER sometimes goes off too early, so that GetTickCount() is right and the callback time is wrong, whereas on Unix the problem is that my GETTICKCOUNT implementation comes from the system clock which means it can change suddenly and non-monotonically if the sysadmin is messing about (meaning that the timing of callbacks from GTK or select timeouts is _more_ likely to be right than GETTICKCOUNT). This checkin provides band-aid workarounds for both problems, which aren't pretty but ought to at least prevent catastrophic assertion failure. check-in: 19b26a1cc7 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 20:22 | In fact, I'll document the wrinkle with "plink -load", rather than just wittering about it on a mailing list. check-in: f382c137f8 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 19:01 | Fix comment re dmemdumpl() check-in: 0d7a14b8db user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 14:23 | Since Markus Kuhn no longer explicitly places wcwidth.c in the public domain, it'd probably be generous to list him in the copyrights. check-in: 53095c321f user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 14:04 | `wcwidth-upgrade': upgrade to latest wcwidth.c from Markus Kuhn <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c>. This is identified both internally and in HTTP headers as 2003-05-20, for Unicode 4.0. Only changes from upstream are to make mk_wcwidth_cjk() non-static and to #include "putty.h" for prototypes. The status of some code points has changed; see the wishlist item. We've had some feedback from the CJK and Arabic communities that upgrading is probably the right thing to do. check-in: 43aaadc6f0 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 19:08 | Another fix from Hung-Te Lin; apparently in some IMEs (such as "MS NewPhonetics"), move events (arrow keys) were being doubled up, apparently because we turned both KEYDOWN and KEYUP events into new KEYDOWN events. I don't claim to understand the precise effect of this patch :( but I'm reasonably confident that it only affects IME users, and experimentally it doesn't seem to break anything obvious, so if piaip says it makes things better that's good enough for me :) check-in: b571a72780 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 17:25 | Fix my fix (r5539) to the `multi-changesettings-crash' fix. Ahem. check-in: 8eba346720 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 17:20 | Add an option to use wcwidth_cjk() instead of wcwidth(), as several people have asked for it. check-in: 196df61809 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 16:20 | Hung-Te Lin spotted that the `multi-changesettings-crash' workaround for Windows would prevent a user opening Change Settings if they'd cancelled a previous Change Settings. check-in: b1e67f39ff user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 11:43 | Mention PUTTY.RND by name check-in: 0fadae178d user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 19:51 | Trim application manifests as much as MS' documentation and Owen's experiments on XP allow while still having the desired effect -- this allows removal of some fibs. Also, change version number to 0.0.0.0 in preparation for `win-versioninfo' (not that we found anything that took any notice of the version number declared here). check-in: f01e04c784 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 19:05 | Improvement for IME font display from Hung-Te Lin. Not tested, but it appears only to affect Glenn Maynard's r1406 code from <20011006170741.A23470@zewt.org> and nothing else, so seems harmless enough. check-in: 6e9a512a1b user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 16:28 | Add comments about default processing in DialogProc/WindowProc, since I often forget the rules. check-in: dafb82d057 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 13:23 | Revert last change: Some versions of the GNU C Library (notably SUSE glibc-2.3.3-118 and Debian libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20) have clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC in their headers, but not in libc itself, which we can't detect easily. check-in: 938b498699 user: ben tags: trunk | |
| 13:02 | If it's available, try to use clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) rather than gettimeofday(), since the former shouldn't warp when the user resets the clock. check-in: fa500e0b32 user: ben tags: trunk | |
| 10:34 | Work around lcc's annoying (but, even more annoyingly, legitimate) refusal to allow comparison of function pointers. Unfortunately this still doesn't cause PuTTY to compile on my lcc installation, because the GetCharacterPlacement stuff in exact_textout() is missing from its header files. This may have been fixed in a future version (I'm using lcc-win32 version 3.8 from December 2003), but I haven't checked. check-in: c21f956e2f user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 21:05 | More compact display for the key links/fingerprints. Still not ideal, but it'll probably do. check-in: 5c3fe3560a user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 20:29 | Set SVN properties on udp.but the same as everything else check-in: d59b56948b user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 20:26 | Try to make our PGP signing more useful: * All the PuTTY tools for Windows and Unix now contain the fingerprints of the Master Keys. The method for accessing them is crude but universal: a new "-pgpfp" command-line option. (Except Unix PuTTYgen, which takes "--pgpfp" just to be awkward.) * Move the key policy discussion from putty-website/keys.html to putty/doc/pgpkeys.but, and autogenerate the former from the latter. Also tweak the text somewhat and include the fingerprints of the Master Keys themselves. (I've merged the existing autogeneration scripts into a single new one; I've left the old scripts and keys.html around until such time as the webmonster reviews the changes and plumbs in the new script; he should remove the old files then.) check-in: d2a830c19a user: jacob tags: trunk | |
