+control use of Pageant for authentication
+
+The \c{-agent} option turns on SSH authentication using Pageant, and
+\c{-noagent} turns it off. These options are only meaningful if you
+are using SSH.
+
+See \k{pageant} for general information on \i{Pageant}
+
+These options are equivalent to the agent authentication checkbox in
+the Auth panel of the PuTTY configuration box (see
+\k{config-ssh-tryagent}).
+
+These options are not available in the file transfer tools PSCP and
+PSFTP.
