Description

PuTTY serves as a free software solution for SSH and Telnet on both Windows and Unix systems, also functioning as an xterm terminal emulator. This client application supports protocols including SSH, Telnet, Rlogin, and SUPDUP, which facilitate remote sessions on computers over a network. Essentially, it operates from the client side of these sessions, where users can view and interact with the remote system. For instance, if you launch PuTTY on a Windows device and establish a connection to a Unix server, a window will open for you. Any commands you enter in this window are transmitted directly to the Unix machine, and the responses from the server will appear in the same window. Consequently, it allows you to operate on the Unix system as if you were physically present at its terminal, even though you could be located in a different place entirely. Additionally, PuTTY permits users to save their configurations in named session profiles, while also giving them the option to modify the default settings that apply to new connections. This flexibility makes it a versatile tool for managing remote sessions effectively.

Description

The application allows for minimizing to the system tray through various methods such as CTRL + minimize, at startup, or always, and features customizable icons. It notifies users with a blinking tray icon upon receiving a bell signal and includes configurable window transparency options. Users can enjoy URL hyperlinking, portability, and the ability to store session configurations in files, enabling use on devices like USB drives, similar to portaPuTTY. The 'always on top' feature is easily accessible through the system menu, and there is support for Android ADB. Additionally, sessions can be loaded from files via the command line, and the software automatically selects 'sessions from file' in the absence of registry-stored sessions. It is now built on PuTTY 0.61, incorporating enhancements such as Windows 7 Jumplist and Aero support. The executables have been signed to alleviate Internet Explorer's concerns, all without necessitating code changes. A new URLs submenu has been introduced for improved keyboard access, while ensuring compatibility with older computers. The application benefits from a code signing certificate and timestamping, eliminating previous certificate errors. Initially compiled by Barry Haanstra, the project is now under the stewardship of Chris West (Faux), ensuring ongoing maintenance and improvements to the software. The evolution of this tool highlights a commitment to enhancing user experience and accessibility across various platforms.
