\C{config} Configuring PuTTY
be empty, this problem should go away, but doing so might cause
other problems.
+Note that this is \e{not} the feature of PuTTY which the server will
+typically use to determine your terminal type. That feature is the
+\q{Terminal-type string} in the Connection panel; see
+\k{config-termtype} for details.
+
\S{config-localecho} \q{Local echo}
\cfg{winhelp-topic}{terminal.localecho}
This mechanism currently only covers ASCII characters, because it
isn't feasible to expand the list to cover the whole of Unicode.
+Character class definitions can be modified by control sequences
+sent by the server. This configuration option only controls the
+\e{default} state. If you modify this option in mid-session using
+\q{Change Settings}, you will need to reset the terminal (see
+\k{reset-terminal}) before the change takes effect.

\H{config-colours} The Colours panel
The Colours panel allows you to control PuTTY's use of colour.
Telnet special interrupt code. You probably shouldn't enable this
unless you know what you're doing.
+\S{config-telnetnl} \q{Return key sends telnet New Line instead of ^M}
+
+\cfg{winhelp-topic}{telnet.newline}
+
+Unlike most other remote login protocols, the Telnet protocol has a
+special \q{new line} code that is not the same as the usual line
+endings of Control-M or Control-J. By default, PuTTY sends the
+Telnet New Line code when you press Return, instead of sending
+Control-M as it does in most other protocols.
+
+Most Unix-style Telnet servers don't mind whether they receive
+Telnet New Line or Control-M; some servers do expect New Line, and
+some servers prefer to see ^M. If you are seeing surprising
+behaviour when you press Return in a Telnet session, you might try
+turning this option off to see if it helps.

\H{config-rlogin} The Rlogin panel
The Rlogin panel allows you to configure options that only apply to
