+The \q{Number of bits} input box allows you to choose the strength
+of the key PuTTYgen will generate.
+
+Currently 1024 bits should be sufficient for most purposes.
+
+\S{puttygen-generate} The \q{Generate} button
+
+\cfg{winhelp-topic}{puttygen.generate}
+
+Once you have chosen the type of key you want, and the strength of
+the key, press the \q{Generate} button and PuTTYgen will begin the
+process of actually generating the key.
+
+First, a progress bar will appear and PuTTYgen will ask you to move
+the mouse around to generate randomness. Wave the mouse in circles
+over the blank area in the PuTTYgen window, and the progress bar
+will gradually fill up as PuTTYgen collects enough randomness. You
+don't need to wave the mouse in particularly imaginative patterns
+(although it can't hurt); PuTTYgen will collect enough randomness
+just from the fine detail of \e{exactly} how far the mouse has moved
+each time Windows samples its position.
+
+When the progress bar reaches the end, PuTTYgen will begin creating
+the key. The progress bar will reset to the start, and gradually
+move up again to track the progress of the key generation. It will
+not move evenly, and may occasionally slow down to a stop; this is
+unfortunately unavoidable, because key generation is a random
+process and it is impossible to reliably predict how long it will
+take.
+
+When the key generation is complete, a new set of controls will
+appear in the window to indicate this.
+
+\S{puttygen-fingerprint} The \q{\ii{Key fingerprint}} box
+
+\cfg{winhelp-topic}{puttygen.fingerprint}
+
+The \q{Key fingerprint} box shows you a fingerprint value for the
+generated key. This is derived cryptographically from the \e{public}
+key value, so it doesn't need to be kept secret.
+
+The fingerprint value is intended to be cryptographically secure, in
+the sense that it is computationally infeasible for someone to
+invent a second key with the same fingerprint, or to find a key with
+a particular fingerprint. So some utilities, such as the Pageant key
+list box (see \k{pageant-mainwin-keylist}) and the Unix \c{ssh-add}
+utility, will list key fingerprints rather than the whole public key.
+
+\S{puttygen-comment} Setting a comment for your key
+
+\cfg{winhelp-topic}{puttygen.comment}
+
+If you have more than one key and use them for different purposes,
+you don't need to memorise the key fingerprints in order to tell
+them apart. PuTTYgen allows you to enter a \e{comment} for your key,
+which will be displayed whenever PuTTY or Pageant asks you for the
+passphrase.
+
+The default comment format, if you don't specify one, contains the
+key type and the date of generation, such as \c{rsa-key-20011212}.
+Another commonly used approach is to use your name and the name of
+the computer the key will be used on, such as \c{simon@simons-pc}.
+
+To alter the key comment, just type your comment text into the
+\q{Key comment} box before saving the private key. If you want to
+change the comment later, you can load the private key back into
+PuTTYgen, change the comment, and save it again.
