16\dd This is sent by a client to announce that it will not have more that
17one channel open at a time in the current connection. The intention
18is that the server, knowing this, can set the window on that one
19channel to something very large, and leave flow control to TCP. The
20format of the request is:
21
22\lcont{
23
24\c byte SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST
25\c uint32 recipient channel
26\c string "simple@putty.projects.tartarus.org"

38\cw{SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_WINDOW_ADJUST} messages as part of its window-size
39tuning. It can be sent on any type of channel. Servers MUST treat it
40as an unrecognised request and respond with
41\cw{SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE}.
