| 17:06 | Go back to using intervals of 16 for the saved session identifiers for the system menu, but expand from 256 entries to 1024 as there seems to be plenty of space. Also remove a couple of unused IDM_* constants. check-in: bea10e6972 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 16:30 | Simon has reminded me _why_ menu identifiers were spaced every sixteen, so let's add a comment so that we don't forget again.

| 11:44 | Since neither I nor Owen know why the IDM_ values for the saved-sessions submenu were going up in steps of 16, I've changed to steps of 1, thus increasing the possible number of sessions from ~256 to 4096, since a recent report seemed to indicate that the previous limit might not be enough for someone (!) I can't find any documentation that puts an upper limit on the number of menu items, and it seems to work on Win98, which is where I'd expect it to break if anywhere. Also a number of other tweaks to this code. check-in: 9dabd7d0df user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 18:47 | Ahem, let's not try initialising a static with a non-constant initialiser. Also, I'm pretty sure that adding a source address to a remote SSH-2 forwarding can never have worked, since we added an address string to the packet twice in that case. OpenSSH 3.4p1 certainly doesn't like it (`Server has disabled port forwarding' debug message). Fixed (and OpenSSH is happier now). check-in: fb4b938df2 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 18:17 | Argh. Failure to make a variable static to get round coroutine mechanics means that each SSH-2 remote tunnel will sfree() something random and thus have a chance of crashing or doing something else bad, although it won't otherwise affect execution. Introduced in 1.319 [r4529] (some of my improved diagnostics). One day I'll make a checkin to ssh.c without forgetting about the coroutines... check-in: b5c42f2525 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 17:57 | Add a note about documentation of the Unix port (i.e., we don't, specifically).

| 10:58 | Differences between protocols: remove the entire paragraph about environment variables. It was no longer true (given that we support them in SSH-2 now), and the new situation was probably too complex to explain in an introductory chapter. And the utility of setting them seems to be marginal these days given the lack of server support. check-in: 557443edea user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 05:59 | I just had a need to decode a piece of Zlib data from out of the middle of a PDF. So here's a modification to sshzlib.c which enables it to be compiled into a standalone Zlib decoder if you define ZLIB_STANDALONE. As an added bonus, it (both standalone and in PuTTY) also validates the Zlib header, just to make sure someone hasn't defined a new compression format. check-in: 2fd4126e27 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 19:41 | Add support for logging "exit-signal", why not. This is disgustingly huge because old versions of OpenSSH got the message format wrong, so we have to infer which format is in use. Tested with Debian stable OpenSSH (3.4p1), with `uint32' packet, and lshd, which uses the correct `string' packet, and also let me test "core dumped" and the explanatory message. check-in: 4b7166ef39 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 16:22 | Support the SSH-2 mechanism for sending signals to a running session. Neither of the SSH servers I conveniently have access to (Debian stable OpenSSH -- 3.4p1 -- and lshd) seem to take a blind bit of notice, but the channel requests look fine to me in the packet log. I've included all the signals explicitly defined by draft-ietf-secsh-connect-19, but I've put the more obscure ones in a submenu of the specials menu; there's therefore been some minor upheaval to support such submenus. check-in: e613d9b7a0 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 10:32 | We shouldn't offer the Break special when we don't have a session to send it down. (A side effect of fixing this is that ssh->mainchain is set to NULL when it closes, which might avoid other sorts of trouble.) While we're here, don't bother offering SSH1_MSG_IGNORE if we believe the remote will barf on it. check-in: 48e6df5b2f user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 09:44 | Telnet specials menu was not being reinstated after a session was restarted in the same window (Windows version only). Policy change: it's now the backend's responsibility to call update_specials_menu() at the start of a session (or whenever it feels ready), if it has any special commands. Otherwise the menu won't be displayed. check-in: df3849f621 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 09:17 | Markus Kuhn's UTF-8 page http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html#activate feels strongly that it should be easy to make _all_ your applications work in UTF-8 mode, without having to remember a switch for each one. Every application should simply note a UTF-8 locale setting and switch into UTF-8 mode automatically. Therefore, for the Unix port only, there's now a checkbox, enabled by default, which causes the drop-down Translation box to be overridden if the locale indicates UTF-8. Anyone who doesn't like this, or doesn't like MGK, is welcome to turn it straight back off. I'm not _completely_ convinced by MGK's argument myself; for xterm/pterm to do _useful_ UTF-8 you also need to specify a decently Unicode-capable font, and there's no way _that_ can be automagically done on noticing a locale setting. But it's a de facto standard (i.e. xterm does it :-) so I might as well at least be _able_ to support it. check-in: c05196ad7c user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 07:36 | Fix bug in scrollback compression, which manifested when attempting to encode a very long (len>128) run of the same literal. check-in: 8d37d576b7 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 05:56 | Moved the environment variables config block out of the Telnet panel into the Connection panel, and implemented support for the SSH2 "env" request. (I haven't yet found a server which accepts this request, so although I've visually checked the packet log and it looks OK, I haven't yet been able to do a full end-to-end test.) Also, the `pty' backend reads this data and does a series of `putenv' commands before launching the shell or application. This is mostly because in last week's UTF-8 faffings I got thoroughly sick of typing `export LANG=en_GB.UTF-8' every time I started a new testing pterm, and it suddenly occurred to me that this would be precisely the sort of thing you'd want to have pterm set up for you, particularly since you can configure it alongside the translation settings and so you can ensure they match up properly. check-in: a859123a17 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 07:37 | Fix two memory leaks in the new code. (There's no point compressing the scrollback if you then leak away all the memory you saved!) One of the leaks - by far the bigger of the two - was in my temporary diagnostic function cc_check(), which is particularly embarrassing :-) check-in: 620424d7a0 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 03:51 | Fix cursor display on a combined character cell. check-in: 5b0b76fdd5 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 03:22 | Mark cc_check() and all calls to it with the new XXX-REMOVE-BEFORE-RELEASE tag, since they're performance-intensive. And now that I'm reasonably confident of remembering to remove them before the next release, I feel less guilty about adding them willy- nilly all over the place, so I've shoved in a couple more for now :-) check-in: 84fb320ebc user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 03:16 | I'm instituting a policy that before every release I will grep the PuTTY source for the word XXX-REMOVE-BEFORE-RELEASE, and not release until I've got rid of all of them. Hence, here's an addition to the release checklist which will remind me to do so. I don't want this mechanism to seriously inhibit a release by being a placeholder for a large piece of work we might never get round to. It should be used only in cases where it's _simple_ to change the offending code: for example, a performance-impacting diagnostic might be invaluable while testing nightly snapshots but wouldn't want to slow down everyone's next release, and it's easy to get rid of on release day. check-in: 60ff6fea69 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 11:42 | First-stage support for Unicode combining characters. The `chars' array of each `termline' structure now contains optional additional entries after the normal number of columns, which are used to chain a linked list of combining characters off any primary termchar that needs it. This means we support arbitrarily many combining characters per cell (unlike xterm's hard limit of 2). Cut and paste works correctly (selecting a character cell containing multiple code points causes all those code points to be cut and pasted). Display works by simply overlaying all the relevant characters on top of one another; this is good enough for Unix (xterm does the same thing), and mostly seems OK for Windows except that the Windows Unicode fonts have a nasty habit of not containing most of the combining characters and thus overlaying an unknown-code-point box on your perfectly good base glyph. I had no idea how to add support in the Mac do_text(), so I've simply stuck in an assertion that will trigger the first time a combining character is displayed, and hopefully this will bite someone with the clue to fix it. check-in: 873b9560c1 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 08:43 | Implement part of `ssh2-generality': introduce the ability to tell PuTTY / Plink not to run a remote shell/command at all. Supported in the GUI configuration and via the (OpenSSH-like) -N command-line option. No effort is currently made to arrange `nice' UI properties. If you do this in GUI PuTTY, a full-size terminal window will still be created, and will sit there with almost nothing in it throughout your session. If you do it in Plink, Plink will not accept any kind of request to terminate gracefully; you'll have to ^C or kill it. Nonetheless, even this little will be useful to some people... check-in: ec1afd9c5e user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 07:10 | Fix '/*' in comment. check-in: 8e5a2d6820 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 06:50 | Re-engineering of terminal emulator, phase 1. The active terminal screen is no longer an array of `unsigned long' encoding 16-bit Unicode plus 16 attribute bits. Now it's an array of `termchar' structures, which currently have 32-bit Unicode and 32 attribute bits but which will probably expand further in future. To prevent bloat of the memory footprint, I've introduced a mostly RLE-like compression scheme for storing scrollback: each line is compressed into a compact (but hard to modify) form when it moves into the term->scrollback tree, and is temporarily decompressed when the user wants to scroll back over it. My initial tests suggest that this compression averages about 1/4 of the previous (32 bits per character cell) data size in typical output, which means this is an improvement even without counting the new ability to extend the information stored in each character cell. Another beneficial side effect is that the insane format in which Unicode was passed to front ends through do_text() has now been rendered sane. Testing is incomplete; this _may_ still have instabilities. Windows and Unix front ends both seem to work as far as I've looked, but I haven't yet looked very hard. The Mac front end I've edited (it seemed obvious how to change it) but I can't compile or test it. As an immediate functional effect, the terminal emulator now supports full 32-bit Unicode to whatever extent the host platform allows it to. For example, if you output a 4-or-more-byte UTF-8 character in Unix pterm, it will not display it properly, but it will correctly paste it back out in a UTF8_STRING selection. Windows is more restricted, sadly. check-in: fd15c23f41 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 09:08 | Someone complained that their keyboard-interactive password prompt was being truncated - it was from OpenSSH on HP/UX and had all sorts of stuff in it ("last successful login" etc). Bodged it by bumping up the space allocated in the fixed array for a password prompt. Also added an indication that the prompt is being truncated, as required by draft-ietf-secsh-auth-kbdinteract-06. (NB that before this checkin, there was a more-or-less harmless buffer overread where if we ever received a keyboard-interactive prompt with echo=1, we'd probably spew goo on the terminal; fixed now.) check-in: 4614439a8b user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 12:04 | Oops - merge version number bump from branch-0-55 (such was the plan). check-in: 31044e1180 user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 12:01 | Apparently sending the tar output to stdout rather than a file causes tar to pad with trailing NULs, which slightly upsets old versions of gzip (1.2.4, not 1.3.x), which upsets some of our correspondents. Use -f to send it to a file instead. (It's not transparently clear what happens when you mix -f and -C; I've tested this with ixion's tar, 1.13.25.) Also add option -o to generate POSIX tar files, as for halibut/Makefile; apparently this shuts up a `trailing garbage' error from WinZip. check-in: 8dfaf512b2 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 14:52 | Attempt to make Windows pointer hiding more robust by ignoring MOUSEMOVE and NCMOUSEMOVE messages where nothing actually changes. It seems Windows likes to send such messages occasionally when other stuff is going on (e.g., in other windows). (Also spotted by Franco Barber <20040122055232.GA8168@febsun.cmhnet.org>.) check-in: 0605efdcdd user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 11:10 | PSFTP was ignoring `-1' and `-2' and always using SSH-2 with fallback to SSH-1. It also ignored any settings forbidding fallback to SSH-1. Ignoring `-1' and `-2' is hardly the end of the world, as it'd be difficult to think of a realistic situation where fallback didn't do the right thing and PSFTP was still useful. However, ignoring a user's `SSH-2 only' setting was a bit rude. check-in: 3a402d8dab user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 09:00 | Fix for `psftp-pscp-ignore-load': Default Settings is now loaded before "-load" is processed so that it doesn't clobber it. I've also changed the semantics of "-load" slightly for PSCP, PSFTP, and Plink: if it's specified at all, it overrides (disables) the implicit loading of session details based on a supplied hostname elsewhere (on the grounds that the user is more likely to want the "-load" session than the implicit session). (PuTTY itself doesn't do implicit loading at all, so I haven't changed it.) This means that all the PuTTY tools' behaviour is now consistent iff "-load" is specified (otherwise, some tools have implicit-session, and others don't). However, I've not documented this behaviour, as there's a good chance it will be swept away if and when we get round to sorting out how we deal with settings from multiple sources. It's intended as a "do something sensible" change. check-in: 81963a938a user: jacob tags: trunk | |
| 07:12 | Text around -load option "(although Plink still requires an explicitly specified host name)" didn't appear to actually be true any more (see `cmdline-host-override'). Removed check-in: 0bf8cf2a62 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 12:07 | Add a configuration option for TCP keepalives (SO_KEEPALIVE), default off. No very good reason, but I've occasionally wanted to frob it to see if it makes any difference to problems I'm having, and it was easy. Tested that it does actually cause keepalives on Windows (with tcpdump); should also work on Unix. Not implemented on Mac (does nothing), but then neither is TCP_NODELAY. Quite a big checkin, much of which is adding `keepalive' alongside `nodelay' in network function calls. check-in: d6cbea6730 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 05:36 | Spotted by Dimitry Andric: `ssh-termspeed' implementation was not taking account of coroutines and used local variables over a crFoo. I believe the impact was cosmetic, affecting the speeds reported in the Event Log only. I've put the variables `ispeed' and `ospeed' in the main ssh_tag structure, even though they're only live for a short duration; I did this rather than create a new state struct for ssh1_protocol() (since ssh_tag already has short-duration junk like portfwd_strptr). check-in: dc2e4b9a58 user: jacob tags: trunk | |

| 13:07 | Jacob reports a segfault when using HTTP proxying under Minefield. It appears that this is because Visual C's sscanf works by first calling strlen to get the length of the string, so that its internal read-character routine can be sure of never overrunning the buffer. Quite why the internal read-char routine can't detect \0 _itself_ rather than having to have it found for it in advance I have no idea. Sigh. check-in: 3ec197ac8d user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 12:10 | Added a wrinkle to the version.c build in the Unix makefile, which will validate an md5sums manifest and if all md5sums match will use a version number provided in a file. This should allow me to produce a Unix release source archive with the property that when unpacked and built it will produce binaries advertising themselves as `Release X.YZ', but as soon as the user starts fiddling with the sources it will revert to `Unidentified build' (though of course the user can still _explicitly_ ask for a release tag, and in fact this will override the default if any default is specified). check-in: e466cedb10 user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 04:02 | Charles Wilcox reported a signature validation bug with 2500-bit RSA keys. This _appears_ to be due to me computing the byte count of the key by dividing the bit count by 8 and rounding _down_ rather than up. Therefore, I can't see how this code could ever have worked on any SSH2 RSA key whose length was not a multiple of 8 bits; and therefore I'm staggered that we haven't noticed it before! OpenSSH's keygen appears to be scrupulous about ensuring the returned key length is exactly what you asked for rather than one bit less, but even so I'm astonished that _all_ keygen implementations for servers we've ever interoperated with have avoided tripping this bug... check-in: 8b68dde6cc user: simon tags: trunk | |

| 15:11 | Bah! Nicolas Barry correctly points out that my async agent code simply doesn't work - if multiple concurrent agent requests are attempted, some of them will fail for no apparent reason. I assume concurrent SendMessage() calls don't work in the Windows API, or some such. So I'm commenting out the async code for the moment (there wasn't a Windows Pageant that made helpful use of it anyway yet) and returning to the drawing board. check-in: 97b606b22e user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 14:59 | Kaisuke Nakajima points out that it's unnecessary to translate negative font sizes (meaning pixels) into positive ones (points) in winstore.c, since it gets done anyway at the point of font creation; and removing the code in winstore.c means that the precise font entered by the user is saved in the config, rather than being rounded. check-in: d86c347e2d user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 13:56 | Darryl L. Miles's patch to support an optional port number argument on the PSFTP `open' command; it was arguably a bug that this command couldn't do such an obvious thing that could be done from the main command line.

| 14:35 | Alexey Savelyev's mkfiles.pl patch to support lcc-win32. This has caused a small amount of extra inconvenience at the tops of .rc files, but it's been positive overall since lcc has managed to point out some pedantic errors (typically static/extern mismatches between function prototypes and definitions) which everything else missed. check-in: c0d4df0389 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 13:46 | Paul van der Meij points out that do_reconfig() should not free dp.errtitle, since it's also freed in dp_cleanup(). Minefield agrees. Fixed. check-in: 55462fd892 user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 13:41 | Josh Hill's patch for full-screen mode on a multi-monitor system: clicks in the top left of the window should not be detected by comparing the coordinates with (0,0) since this won't work on secondary monitors. check-in: d8dda0a4ee user: simon tags: trunk | |
| 13:30 | Mark Wutzke points out that the comment in sk_proxy_set_frozen() states that plug_receive() may recurse back into sk_proxy_set_frozen() again. Therefore, bufchain_consume() should have been called _before_ calling plug_receive(), to prevent an infinite loop overflowing the stack. I can't immediately figure out under what circumstances this might happen, but it seems an obviously sensible precaution. check-in: 438d79e310 user: simon tags: trunk | |
