3 Information about PuTTY for the Mac OS

8 See ../README for generic information.
10 To compile PuTTY for Mac OS you will need:
13 <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Tool_Chest/Core_Mac_OS_Tools/MPW_etc./
14 MPW-GM_Images/MPW-GM.img.bin>
16 Universal Headers (optional)
17 <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/
18 UniversalHeaders3.4.2.img.bin>
20 Text Encoding Converter SDK
21 <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/TEC_1.5.sit.hqx>
23 Install MPW, install the new Universal Headers (optional), then put
24 the contents of the "68K Static Libraries" directory of the Text
25 Encoding Converter SDK into "Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:Libraries".
27 The "mkputty.mpw" script does most of the work, but currently needs
28 you to run "Rez -append -o PuTTY mac_res.r {Includes}" to get the
29 resources compiled in. The Makefile currently only generates a
30 Classic 68K application. Other architectures will come later.
34 PuTTY should run on any Macintosh running System 7.0 or later. The
35 Classic 68K build seems not to run under Mac OS X (even with
40 * PowerPC and fat versions fail to start on systems without AppearanceLib (ie
41 most System 7 ones). The 68k version works fine. [MAYBE FIXED]
42 * Display is far too slow.
43 * Real bold doesn't compensate for changing character widths without Color
44 QuickDraw. [MAYBE FIXED]
45 * sshsha.c and sshmd5.c cause a stack overflow in Apple's PowerPC C compiler
46 unless optimisation is entirely disabled.
48 Features we need (and aren't entirely obvious):
50 * Scroll-conflation -- scroll_display should change the in-memory
51 display and remember the scroll, then do_scroll should be called
52 only when scroll_display gets called for a different rectangle or
