Other forks of PuTTY

I'd like to merge all the compatible code from as many forks as possible.

I am currently aware of, in no particular order:

Might want to steal code from...

PortaPuTTY

• http://code.google.com/p/portaputty/ , abandoned since 2007, PuTTY 0.60.
• https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/tree/portaputty-steveman-0.62 - "steveman"'s rebase of this upon PuTTY 0.62.
• Most of the PuTTYTray patches, but with only file store support.
• This does not merge; they drop support for the registry and just go with files, so winstore.c is a mess. Everything else is similar, I believe; haven't checked.

"Jakub Kotrla" PuTTY

• http://jakub.kotrla.net/putty/ , active 2017, PuTTY 0.70
• Just drops the registry code and replace it with a new winstore.c, again, no merging.

iPuTTY

• https://github.com/iPuTTY/iPuTTY , active 2018, PuTTY 0.70.
• Some of the smaller PuTTYTray patches, plus IME support, Korean localisation, extra hotkeys, and other cool stuff.
• Large diff, doesn't quite align with my PuTTYTray tree as I've reordered some lines doing the commit splitting (argh), so hard to merge.
• Would like to steal the IME support, but I can't quite work out what advantages it has (at least, on modern Windows?).
• Should steal some of the extra keybindings, as they seem useful.
• Spoke to "daybreaker"; he would rather continue as separate projects, and in Mercurial (boo!). That's cool. Still need to rearrange my code (possibly using umage's work) to make merging easier both ways.

iceiv

• http://ice.hotmint.com/putty/ , active 2018, PuTTY 0.70
• http://ice.hotmint.com/putty/d2ddw.html even more insane version with directwrite
• https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/tree/iceiv-gdi
• A different attempt at IME (and apparently having replaced a load of the font code, I'm not sure why; fullwidth?)
• Custom keymappings
• Cool background transparency patch
• Some other PuTTYTray or PuTTYTray-style patches

umage putty

• http://netvor.sk/~umage/ / https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/tree/diffs/umage , PuTTY 0.60.
• Cleaned up set of PuTTYTray patches, like mine, with unnecessary whitespace changes removed. Don't trivially apply to p0.60; haven't worked out why.

PuTTY Portable

• http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/putty_portable , active 2017, PuTTY 0.70.
• No code changes. Portability is implemented through a launcher which dumps/restores the registry to a file. Could implement similar functionality? Not really any point, as it's horrible.

KiTTY

• http://kitty.9bis.com/ , active 2017, PuTTY 0.70
• Huge set of wrapper code; binaries in source dump. UI tweaks, icon-per-session, automatic command sending, other PuTTYTray patches.
• https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/commits/kitty

PuTTY-URL

• http://ryara.net/putty-url/ , active 2017, PuTTY 0.70
• Rewrite of the URL patch in C (woo!), icons and font changes.
• https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/commits/puttyurl

boxtty

• https://github.com/plasticbox/boxtty
• ??? Unicode font changes
• https://github.com/FauxFaux/PuTTYTray/commits/boxtty

dPuTTY

• https://dev.daybreaker.info/dputty , SVN repo down, guessing abandoned for iPuTTY (same author).

Hangul PuTTY

• ??? , even older version of dPuTTY

PuTTYTray Redux

• http://www.simmonsconsulting.com/puttytray/ , active 2013, PuTTY 0.63
• A different fork of Barry's PuTTYTray
• Window position, new font defaults, ...
• https://gitorious.org/puttytray

Can't find source for...

PuTTYjp

• http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA024651/PuTTYkj.html , active 2017, PuTTY 0.70; no source that I can see.
• Support for EUC and ISO-2022, and other East-Asian encodings.

John's AMD64 PuTTY

• http://www.kelley.ca/amd64/ , abandoned since 2007, PuTTY 0.59.
• Can't find source; diff link 404s.
• Guessing patches went into core, or anything they did was fixed. x64 build currently works fine, as far as I'm aware.

ExtraPuTTY

• http://sourceforge.net/projects/extraputty , active 2016, PuTTY 0.67
• Lots of cool scripting and integration with other apps, apparently
• Can't tell if it's supposed to be open source or not...
